Hudson River Day Line: A time table and fleet guide for the 1915 season with 16 pages. One could depart from 42nd Street at 9 a.m. and arrive in Albany at 6:10 p.m. And what a trip it would have been. Several route maps and photos of the sights show why these excursion were so popular in the pre-highway days. In the back are large b&w one panel portraits of the WASHINGTON IRVING, HENDRICK HUDSON, ROBERT FULTON, and ALBANY. The "palace steel steamers" are wonderfully long and sleek in a 19th century sort of way. The photos show that the decks are teeming with sunning passengers enjoying the voyage.
