Excerpt from The Story of Wyoming Valley The History of Wyoming Valley epitomized in this little story is one of the saddest and most dramatic ever acted. The place in which it was acted is an amphitheatre fashioned by the hand of the Almighty. The arena is a plain, the walls are the blue hills and in the place of silken canopies, the fathomless sky. Any stranger looking down on this plain from the mountain would feel that in the past men fought with the wild proprietor and with each other to make this secluded portion of the earth their own. We are busy with the fleeting phantom called life, and so fully absorbed that the earth beneath and the sky above has faded as completely as the dreams of our vanished youth. These fields and encircling hills are beautiful, and the short history of the white man since he first came here is more than an idle tale told to occupy an idle hour.

Excerpt from The Wyoming Valley in 1892 The valley as seen from the mountain top will never lose its charm; but below the poetry is marred, the enchanting spell is broken and the dreaming spirit broods no longer over this inland Eden. Of its past history we have only a few conflicting fragments, but these fragments have made this spot famous and have awakened the interest and sympathy of mankind. Its future history will be found in the statistical reports of its industries and the record of its material wealth.

Excerpt from The Wyoming Valley in the Nineteenth Century, Vol. 1 Our history is a sad tale, and the giving it immortality was the accident of circumstance and position. Lts weakness and misfortune in that one supreme summer of '78 give it a claim to the sympathy of humanity.
