Choice Publications.
Tourists, or other travelers, who at
any time contemplate a trip through
the southeast should post up on the
beauties and other attractions of this
region.
The Western & Atlantic Railroad
Company has issued a series of the
most beautiful publications which any
railroad company has ever sent out
under its name, and will take pleas
ure in enclosing them to any parties
who will send stamps to pay postage.
*** . . „ .
The Mountain Campaigns in Georgia;
or, War Scenes on the Western & At
lantic, is the finest publication which
has been issued, and is the acme of an
advertisement in that it does not at all
appear to be an advertisement. It is
a condensed history of the Atlanta
campaign,—the accuracy of whose
text has been endorsed by Generals
Joseph E. Johnston and William T.
Sherman. Its letter-press is superb,
and its maps and illustrations are the
very finest of their kind.
TAe Western <£' Atlantic Battle-Fields
Folder, contains a description of the
battles at each station along the line
of the Western A Atlantic Railroad,
or those engagements which occurred
near the various stations. This is il
lustrated with fine cuts, and is the
most handy and correct guide-book
which is to be found.
***
r lhe Western Atlantic’s Marietta
Folder, is a beautiful 40-page pamph
let, with numerous illustrations of
scenes about Kennesaw Mountain,
Marietta and Allatoona, showing the
scenic beauties of the region, charac
teristic and historical incidents. Any
one reading this pamphlet will make
up his mind that Marietta is the pret
tiest spring-time and summer resort in
the Southeast, and the fact that there
are so many Northern and Northwest
ern people who spend the winter in
Marietta, and so many Southern peo
ple who spend the summer there attest
the good which the publication has
done.

The Western & Atlantic’s Bird’s-Eye
Map Folder, is a large map, 32 inches
long by 18 inches wide, and is a topo
graphical map of the country between
Atlanta and Chattanooga, showing the
course of the Western & Atlantic
Railroad through picturesque moun
tain country and the beautiful and
fertile plains of northwest Georgia,
'fhe references to the battles along
this line in the Atlanta campaign are
shown by representations of lines of
men shooting at each other. The his
toric matter, illustrations, time tables,
etc., on the reverse side of the folder
are invaluable to the pleasure seeker
or traveler.

The Western & Atlantic General Map
Folder, is a large map of the United
States. It has important schedule
matter on the reverse side, and is the
best folder which is issued for those
traveling through this section.
