Location: Niagara Falls, New York

SYNOPSIS, The Moving Picture World, May 11, 1912:

"A beautiful motographic study of the Falls, full of effects that will startle and thrill."

REVIEW, The Morning Telegraph, May 19, 1912:

"Niagara has been taken so many times and is so familiar to all Americans who have seen still and motion pictures of it, that it might perhaps become monotonous were it not so marvelous. But one can never tire of Niagara, and this series of views, from all sides, above and below, afar and close to the rushing water's edge, are as well taken as any that this or any other company has yet presented. The final tones of sunset are delightful and make a fitting ending for the subject."

REVIEW,The Moving Picture World, May 25, 1912:

"This scenic, giving very lovely views of the great cataract, has much to recommend it. The pictures are taken from fresh viewpoints, and the prints, on carefully tinted films, are clear and very praiseworthy for it. It includes a sunset view and a moonlight view."

REVIEW, The New York Dramatic Mirror, May 22, 1912:

"The title is well chosen, for it shows the falls and its surrounding beauties in very complete and artistic scenes."
