## About this book

The Wayside Inns on the Lancaster Roadside Between Philadelphia and La, Volume 1, is a detailed work of local history focusing on the historic buildings of Pennsylvania. Julius F Sachse documents the numerous taverns and inns that served travelers along the Lancaster Turnpike during the turn of the nineteenth century. This volume provides a comprehensive look at sixty-two different establishments, arranged from east to west, and explores the roles of teamsters and innkeepers in early American travel.

This study of historic hotels includes in-depth chapters on landmarks such as the General Warren and Spread Eagle. Through a combination of historical narratives and photographs taken in the 1880s, the text preserves the memory of structures that were largely in ruins by 1915. The book serves as a primary record of Pennsylvania history and the evolution of the nation's early road systems.
