(LARGE PRINT EDITION) 1926. Being a collection of favorite Yosemite views, together with a brief account of its history and legends, for those who want to know and enjoy Yosemite more. The purpose of this book is to quicken again emotions that were stirred by such pictures in the heart of every visitor, by presentation of the outstanding views of Yosemite; since, without an occasional jogging, memory pictures alone blur and become indistinct with time. And just as so many people who make a tour of the Valley elect to have a guide to furnish the facts and the fancies, so is a text appended to the illustrations. If this book serves, then, to recapture even for a moment the sparkle of the sun-sifted spray of the Bridal Veil, or the evening shadows and tints on Half Dome, or if it recreates for a moment the tourist days of the Yosemite of our mothers, in the era of the stage coach, as contrasted with the present, with its automobile roads to the very feet of the glaciers, it will have fulfilled its mission.
