Opis

The period from 1884 to 1926 was the heyday of the trolley lines, the height of steam travel, and the peak of interest in the A[a¬Aback to natureA[a¬A movement. It was a time for spiritual renewal, when society was encouraged to enjoy family activities in the fresh air. Resorts served as an escape from summerA[a¬a[s oppressive heat and offered a world of fun, fantasy, and fishingA[a¬aa world far removed from the toils of the shop, the chores of the farm, or the everyday drudgery demanded by a labor intensive, pre-electric society. RochesterA[a¬a[s Lakeside Resorts and Amusement Parks documents in over 200 photographs the development, dates, locations, and attractions that were a unique part of the rich history of each resort. Offering a window into yesterday, this book reveals many unusual facts about the area and features the fascinating characters who owned and operated the impressive hotels, boats, trolley lines, and amusement concessions.
