Excerpt from The Scenery-Shower: With Word-Paintings of the Beautiful, the Picturesque, and the Grand in Nature
Dear Sir,
The germ of the present little work was a Lecture delivered before the body over which you preside, in the summer of 1841. The favor with which it was generally received, and especially your own warm commendation, in respect to its useful tendency toward the end in view, have encouraged me to this enlargement and greater finish.
