Mammoth Cave by Lantern Light - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Mammoth Cave by Lantern Light looks at how travelers in 1800's saw the cave, their views of the ancient American Indians who came before them, celebrities who graced the cave, and the unusual lives of slaves who guided tours and explored new passages.
Some experiences early cave visitors had are familiar to visitors today: gazing fearfully down Bottomless Pit and ducking through a narrow, winding passage called Fat Man's Misery. Others are long gone: arriving by stage coach and maneuvering through rough, dark passages in a petticoat, corset, and high-button shoes with only a lantern to see your way.
