A superior collector's copy. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE -- Aaron H. Grout, serving as Secretary of State during a period of massive infrastructure growth, utilized the Bureau of Publicity to transform Vermont's image into 'The Nation's Playground.' This 1924 publication represents a key moment in that campaign, utilizing the prestige of authors like John Greenleaf Whittier and Julia C. R. Dorr to provide a 'literary' veneer to what was essentially an economic development tool for the state. The inclusion of an automobile distance index marks the definitive shift from rail-based tourism to the era of the independent motorist. Historically, it captures the lakes of Eastern Vermont before mid-century development altered many of the shorelines depicted in the photographs. SUBJECTS: Vermont Lakes, Aaron H. Grout, Vermont Bureau of Publicity, American Poetry, Automobile Tourism, 1920s Travel, New England History, Ephemera, Travel Guide, Regional History.
