Discover the natural and architectural wonders that abound along New York's Hudson River Valley in this lavishly illustrated travel and field guide. The unique scenery, plants and wildlife, and architecture of the valley, from Sleepy Hollow near New York City north to the town of Catskill, are showcased through 150 color photos. Brief essays relate the majesty of the four seasons in the valley, its waterfalls, bogs, people, history, and more. Whether it's learning about the recovery of bald eagles or the region's rare orchids, taking a tour through a historic Gilded Age mansion, or rambling to the top of a legendary mountain said to be the abode of mischievous imps, it will be hard, if not impossible, to avoid falling "under the sway of some witching power" that Washington Irving believed pervades this remarkable land. Includes a map with forty locations worth visiting and driving directions.

Americans like to think of themselves as a peaceful and peace-loving people, and in remembering their own revolutionary past, American historians have long tended to focus on colonial origins and Constitutional aftermath, neglecting the fact that the American Revolution was a long, hard war. In this book, John Shy shifts the focus to the Revolutionary War and explores the ways in which the experience of that war was entangled with both the causes and the consequences of the Revolution itself. This is not a traditional military chronicle of battles and campaigns, but a series of essays that recapture the social, political, and even intellectual dimensions of the military effort that had created an American nation by 1783.

Download Hudson Valley History and Mystery Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The Hudson Valley is rooted in the mysterious. In fact, author Washington Irving called it "the spellbound region." But whether fact, superstition, or legend, the mystery of the region is detailed here through an amazing range of sites from enigmatic stone structures and ancient petroglyphs, to battlefields, haunted mountaintops, and popular waterfalls. Tales of ghosts and strange creatures, a hint of the supernatural, and attention-grabbing folklore and real-life experiences abound, including a fair share of lost treasure--from the infamous pirate Captain Kidd and outlaw Claudius Smith, to the more modern gangster, Dutch Schultz. Each of the 20 chapters includes mystifying stories, beautiful and expansive photography, and a "Getting There" section that provides coordinates and detailed directions to the location. So whether you're in the mood for an armchair vacation, or real visits to mysterious places, the Hudson Valley region is the place to be.

"The Hudson Valley in New York State has captured the imagination of an extraordinary number of America's most significant thinkers and writers from the time of the early Dutch settlers to the present day. This superb, one-of-a-kind collection brings together pieces by Henry James, Washington Irving, John Burroughs, Lewis Mumford, Carl Carmer, Roland Van Zandt, Alf Evers and many others, writing on subjects as diverse as flyfishing and Shaker chairs and including recent essays on current concerns including the Storm King controversy and other conservation stand-offs in the region." "In her introduction, Bonnie Marranca writes: "What makes a Hudson Valley life different from any other life? It begins with knowing where you live." These narratives provide a glimpse of a particular life at a particular time, vastly different in voice and perspective; the common ground joining these lives over the centuries is a strong sense of "knowing where you live." Through these essays, the travelers, artists, inventors, writers, statesmen, scientists and historians who have made this celebrated region their home speak of a shared heritage to Hudson Valley residents and travelers of the present day."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
