Pictures are given which show the natural beauty of the Copper Country. Pleasing views are so bountifully bestowed by nature that it is a difficult task to choose the most impressive. But enough are given to create a taste for more—a taste that can be gratified to its fullest only by rambling among the vales and hills, through the forests and along the banks of the quiet streams and the shores of the mighty Unsalted Sea.
The new South Range is thoroughly pictured. This is the young giant which in the last five years has forged forward and wrought from the ground which was the rooting place for an unbroken forest a group of copper mining camps that stand to-day close rivals to the older camps which have been half a century in the making.
Such pictures constitute within themselves a story of beauty, power and pathos which no words can enhance. Those responsible for the book have drawn from its preparation a wealth of pleasure. Courtesies have been extended from all sources, in recompense for which the sincerest expression of appreciation is now extended. May those into whose hands the book shall come glean from it all the subtle meaning and all the stirring thoughts which its pictures are capable of inspiring. It will then be an epic, indeed—a poem, a song, a burst of harmony beyond the power of words to utter.
