Publisher's Synopsis
On Horseback is a travelogue written by American author Charles Dudley Warner. The book details Warner's journey on horseback through the American West in the late 1800s. Warner describes the landscape, people, and culture of the region as he travels through various towns and cities. He also shares his experiences with various modes of transportation, including horse-drawn carriages and trains. Throughout the book, Warner reflects on the changes he observes in the West and the impact of modernization on the region. On Horseback is a fascinating account of a bygone era in American history and a testament to the enduring allure of the American West.The Professor and the Friend of Humanity were about starting on a journey, across country southward, through regions about which the people of Abingdon could give little useful information. If the travelers had known the capacities and resources of the country, they would not have started without a supply train, or the establishment of bases of provisions in advance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
