Description:
Harry Alexander Ogden's famous drawing of the S.S. Cambria. The article begins: "In the landlocked waters of Southwest Harbor lies the now muchly talked of Cambria. A more adroit selection for a quiet berth could scarcely have been made; and when we came to take a glance at the trim and taut-looking vessel, we felt inclined to wonder, as with the fly in amber, "how the deuce she got there?” Southwest Harbor is about twenty-three miles from Ellsworth, Maine. To reach it, recalls those tortuous times when our forefathers ventured forth at rare intervals, their wills made, their flasks full, and their powder dry. The journey from New York to Boston, and from thence to Bangor, savors of the nineteenth century, but from Bangor to Ellsworth, and from Ellsworth to Southwest Harbor, speaks loudly of the eighteenth."

Description:
Taken later than the view shown in Item 5663, this view shows a little greenery grown up around the small hotel perched on granite. The Mountain House, built in 1866, was the first hotel to be built on what was then Green Mountain, now Cadillac Mountain. "Daniel Brewer's Mountain House operated through the early 1880's, offering simple, but hearty meals and modest overnight lodging. During the 1870's as many as 3,000 visitors patronized the place each summer." - Steam to the Summit: The Green Mountain Railway - Bar Harbor’s Remarkable Cog Railroad, by Peter Dow Bachelder, p. 24 - 2005. This building was replaced with a much larger structure, The Green Mountain House, when the Green Mountain Railway was built in 1883. [show more]
