- Summary:
- This informational periodical, edited by Robert L. Wade, printed very little fiction and intentionally omitted sentimental tales. Most of the material was descriptive--biographies of famous people; and articles telling of famous battles, great adventures, American scenery, and the people and sights of foreign lands. Some science articles, essays, and poetry appeared also; rather badly printed woodcuts illustrated the text. Cf. American periodicals, 1741-1900.
