Joseph Pennell's Pictures of the Wonder of Work

X THE CAMBRIA STEEL WORKS, JOHNSTOWN

Reading edition

Always when I have been going or coming east or west on the Pennsylvania and reached Johnstown I have meant to stop, for from the train it seemed so fine. Now I have stopped and know it is far finer than I imagined, and that there are endless subjects up and down the river banks, but this one of the steel works seems to me the finest—as magnificent as any I have ever seen anywhere.
