Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

The early days of Rockland County and its various towns and townships, are recalled through a mixture of colorful tales and factual data in this NEW 16 Page Booklet reprinted from two hard-to-find books, the 1841 edition of Historical Collections of the State of New York by John Warner Barber and Henry Howe, and the 1940 edition of New York, a Guide to the Empire State. The spiral-bound booklet has the print enlarged for easier reading. A clear vinyl sheet has been added to protect the front cover. The communities mentioned include: Clarkstown, New City, Haverstraw, Warren, Sampsondale, Caldwell's Landing, Orangetown, Dobbs Ferry, Nyack, Ramapo, Tappan, Piermont, and Stony Point. Among the topics in the booklet are: the Storming of Stony Point by Gen. Wayne with his detailed account to Washington; a descriptive account of the Execution of the spy Andre and the return of his remains to England; a Royal Snuffbox and a Silver Inkstand; the Baynard Lane Cooperative Experiment; the Stony Point Battlefield Reservation; and the De Wint Mansion, Washington's headquarters at one time. Names/Surnames mentioned include: Gen. Anthony Wayne, Col. Jeduthan Baldwin, Armstrong, Thomas Wandle, Arthur Johnson, Dupuy, Rev. Demarat, Ralph Borsodi, Dan Beard, James A. Farley, Joshua Hett Smith, James Wood, Robert Owen, James Monroe Hewlett, Major John Smith, William Palmer, Nicholas Williamson and James Green, Michael Cornelison, Claes Jansen Kuyper. ILLUSTRATIONS depict the Northern view of Stony Point on the Hudson River and a view of the place where Andre was executed. The Howe/Barber history covers the development of this area until about 1841, while excerpts from the WPA book, give a nostalgic glympse from a 1940 vantage point, including interesting historical notes, especially as they relate to sightseeing possibilities. There's also a small map of the area from a 1948 booklet printed by the New York Telephone Company.…
