About this title

Synopsis

The Stranger's Guide and Reference Book to the City of Saint Paul, originally published in 1878, offers a fascinating glimpse into a pivotal era of Saint Paul's development. This guide is invaluable for historians, researchers, and anyone interested in the late 19th-century Midwest. Beyond merely listing streets and attractions, the book provides a rich contextual understanding of the city as it stood on the cusp of significant change. The inclusion of a 'Hotel Directory of the Northwest' adds practical value, reflecting the importance of travel and accommodation during this period.

E.A. Kirby's guide is more than just a directory; it's a snapshot of a city brimming with potential and promise. Experience Saint Paul as visitors did over a century ago, with insights into its commercial landscape, social dynamics, and the infrastructure that supported its growth. This meticulously reproduced edition ensures that the historical insights and charm of the original are preserved for modern readers.
