Crofutt's new Overland tourist, and Pacific Coast guide ... over the Union, Kansas, Central and Southern Pacific Railroads, their branches and connections, by rail, water and stage ..
Crofutt's New Overland Tourist is an 1883 guidebook by George A. Crofutt, published in Omaha and Denver, for travellers riding the Union, Kansas, Central and Southern Pacific railroads across the American West. Its pictures are plain wood-engraved views of mountain slopes, a cliff road, saguaro cacti and a train curving past a rock outcrop, which show how nineteenth-century railway tourism framed western landscape and offer a designer quiet, documentary scenery for historical themes.
