Journey Along the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad:
Pictorial History of Pocono Mountain Boarding Homes, Hotels, Inns & Resorts from the Delaware Water Gap to Tobyhanna, Pennsylvania
by Alan Sweeney

Postcard images capture the transformation of the Pocono Mountains from secluded wilderness to vacation destination. With the arrival of the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western Railroad, numerous stations throughout the Pocono regions served those temporarily fleeing the confines of city life. A multitude of boarding homes, hotels, inns and resorts provided travelers with a wide variety of accommodations and activities. This work is a representation of the author's 10 year endeavor to collect postcards depicting the Pocono Mountains. The images illustrate how the area's tourism industry developed. Readers are destined to enjoy a journey through time while rediscovering treasured memories from a bygone era.
