Bird's eye view shows a pair of railroads paralleling the creek, along with several manufacturing operations: mills, a box factory, a foundry, and a carriage factory.';

The availability of water from the Silver Lake outlet enabled a number of mills and other manufactures to be located in the town. Like many of its neighbors, Perry also had a salt mining company (under various names between 1886 and 1909).';

var str = 'Full title of the map is "Le Canada, ou Nouvelle France, la Floride, la Virginie, Pensilvanie, Caroline, Nouvelle Angleterre et Nouvelle Yorck, l'Isle de Terre Neuve, la Louisiane, et le cours de la riviere de Misisipi." The title turns out to be important, because this map's radically foreshortened perspective is there to emphasize French claims in the New World--and to minimize those of the British, as seen via the size of its colonies. The Great Lakes are a central location on this map, just over a decade after the Denonville expedition.
Nicolas de Fer was a cartographer better known for his striking graphics than for the accuracy of his maps. In addition to spatial manipulations, he makes a point of plotting French forts, trading posts, and (potential) Native American trading partners.
In addition to the map, this item also includes a detail that has been used for an animated gif in the story map "Translations: Hosmer's 'Yonnondio'"

var str = 'Southward-looking panorama straddles the genres of landscape painting, bird's eye view, and travel promotion. Although created by noted painter its appeal is easy to see for the Northern Pacific Railroad and its excursionary Yellowstone Park Line.
The work shows natural features (Mammoth Hot Springs, Yellowstone Lake, geysers), several hotels, tourist features (wigwams, horse-drawn wagons), and of course the railroad infrastructure bringing visitors to the national park. Fort Yellowstone, located near the Mammoth Hot Springs, had been a necessary presence in the park's earlier days due to illegal poaching, mining, and tree-cutting.
This bird's eye view appears in OpenValley as a contrast to the more minimalist style used by Lucien R. Burleigh for a map of Caledonia, the subject of this story map.';

Yet the supply of hydropower--see the canal and mills at left, and even on Green Island--meant that manufacturing also was an long-established interest.
