About this title

Synopsis

The Traveller's Guide Through The Middle And Northern States, And The Provinces Of Canada by Gideon Miner Davison. This pocket manual guides travelers through the eastern United States and Canadian provinces, offering route-by-route itineraries, distance tables, and practical notes on travel accommodations, canals, railroads, and steam navigation in the early 19th century. The book covers travel from Augusta, Georgia to Boston, and northward to Montreal and Quebec, detailing major cities, hotels, and port towns, along with insightful descriptions of engineering works such as Erie Canal, Chesapeake and Delaware Canal, Rideau Canal, Champlain Canal, and various rail lines then under construction. It provides historical context of places (Jamestown, Monticello, Mont Vernon, Washington, Philadelphia, New York), and features excursions to sights like Saratoga Springs, Niagara Falls, Lake George, Lake Champlain, and the St. Lawrence route. The text blends practical travel guidance with historical and architectural notes, reflecting the era's exploration and infrastructure expansion.
