There may be no locality combining more general interest for the pleasure-seeking tourist than the White Mountains. Here every season thousands come from different climes, on a pilgrimage, that they may pay most worshipful tribute in spirit-felt wonder, and songs of praise. My apology for attempting to originate and compile the following pages, is the belief that the curiosity of the travelling public requires a work embodying my design. The pencil of "Oakes" and the pen of "Beckett" have nicely defined every explored locality, interestingly connected with the particular geography of these mountains; besides which, the number of those may be called "legion" who have made fancied famous record for the world of their White Mountain impressions. These mountains are a fadeless pictured page in Nature's wonderful book, - or a gigantic monument of ruins formed by an overwhelming change, that widely disfigured the original geological formation of this wild region; and as a massive rock-shadow in a strange land, is to a journey-sick pilgrim with a gushing cold-water spring by his feet, so my impressions of these famous "old peaks" now rise to my sight.
