'Dalles of the Wisconsin, "The Jaws".', 1874. Tourists visit an unusual rock formation on the Dells of the Wisconsin River, Wisconsin, USA. 'At the Jaws we move from one spot which we think the most lovely to another that excels, and on through inexhaustible beauties, in a state of unalloyed rapture. There is as much "life" in the Dalles as the most sociable of tourists could desire. On fine days in the summer the water is skimmed by pleasure-barges and row-boats, filled with gayly-dressed people from neighboring towns'. From "Picturesque America; or, The Land We Live
