Book excerpt: Excerpt from Police Guide and Directory of St. Louis: A Pocket Directory to All Places of Public Resorts and Street Railroad Guide to All Points of Interest As a member of the Metropolitan Police Force of St. Louis for the past nine years, I have been favored with the best possible opportunity to acquire a thorough knowledge of the city, and to locate such places as are usually sought for by strangers, whether here on business or for pleasure. Moreover the growth and improvements of St. Louis have gone far beyond the knowledge of even the oldest and most active resident, and not unfrequently are officers called upon for directions to various points by that class. I have therefore carefully prepared this Hook with a view to covering the whole ground for all classes. It has been the chief object of my labor to make the Guide as complete and perfect in all respects as it is possible to have such a work. Careful attention has been paid to every feature, even to the advertisements in which is presented a full exposition of the largest and best business interests of the city. Not only will strangers find it an invaluable vademecum in their tour of St. Louis, assisting them in their sight-seeing, and enabling them to traverse our streets with almost the same ease as an old resident, but citizens already acquainted with many of the points of interest around them will be surprised to learn that there are numerous new objects here for their attention. The Guide will be revised annually and in each new edition such corrections and addenda will be made as the general progress of this great metropolis demands.
