The title "Sketches of Wonderland" sets this cover apart: its blue floral decoration frames the book's name, which points to Yellowstone, the park whose early visitors often called it "Wonderland." Yellowstone became the first national park in 1872, and its geysers, canyons and waterfalls drew a steady stream of travel writers and illustrators afterward. Covers like this one, with ornamental botanical borders, were typical of late nineteenth-century publishing, when illustrated books about scenic places were popular with armchair travelers.
