Book The River St  John

Download or read book The River St John written by Wm O. Raymond and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 584 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The River St. John: Its Physical Features, Legends and History, From 1604 to 1784 As the papers contributed were found to have aroused considerable interest they were reprinted in book form. The edition was soon disposed of and is now out of print. The present book will be found a great improvement upon the former one, not only as regards typographical appearance, but in matter of arrangement and literary style. Much new material has been added, including a description of the physical features of the river, while the chapters have been recast and to ma large extent rewritten. The period covered begins with the discovery of the river in 1604 by Champlain and De Monts and ends with the coming of Mths Loyalists. The story may one day be continued in another book, but the author must for the present rest content with his modest attempt to tell in these pages the story of the years that antedate the the formation of that part of old Nova Scotia north of the Bay of Fundy into the Province of New Brunswick in 1784.

  • ISBN : 0820342246
  • Pages : 257 pages

Download or read book River of Lakes written by Bill Belleville and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First explored by naturalist William Bartram in the 1760s, the St. Johns River stretches 310 miles along Florida's east coast, making it the longest river in the state. The first "highway" through the once wild interior of Florida, the St. Johns may appear ordinary, but within its banks are some of the most fascinating natural phenomena and historic mysteries in the state. The river, no longer the commercial resource it once was, is now largely ignored by Florida's residents and visitors alike. In the first contemporary book about this American Heritage River, Bill Belleville describes his journey down the length of the St. Johns, kayaking, boating, hiking its riverbanks, diving its springs, and exploring its underwater caves. He rediscovers the natural Florida and establishes his connection with a place once loved for its untamed beauty. Belleville involves scientists, environmentalists, fishermen, cave divers, and folk historians in his journey, soliciting their companionship and their expertise. River of Lakes weaves together the biological, cultural, anthropological, archaeological, and ecological aspects of the St. Johns, capturing the essence of its remarkable history and intrinsic value as a natural wonder.

Since then, however, the Portuguese have begun to exhibit some activity in connection with the cod fishery of the Grand Bank, and in the Spring and sum mer of 1885 bought several New England fishing schooners and fitted out others from home ports. Their voyages proving generally successful, they have added more vessels to their fishing fleet during the latter part of this year, and it is quite possible that, in the course of a few seasons.

  • Author : Ellen Wohl
  • Publisher : University of Chicago Press
  • Release : 2010-11-15
  • ISBN : 0226904806
  • Pages : 368 pages

Download or read book A World of Rivers written by Ellen Wohl and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-11-15 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Far from being the serene, natural streams of yore, modern rivers have been diverted, dammed, dumped in, and dried up, all in efforts to harness their power for human needs. But these rivers have also undergone environmental change. The old adage says you can’t step in the same river twice, and Ellen Wohl would agree—natural and synthetic change are so rapid on the world’s great waterways that rivers are transforming and disappearing right before our eyes. A World of Rivers explores the confluence of human and environmental change on ten of the great rivers of the world. Ranging from the Murray-Darling in Australia and the Yellow River in China to Central Europe’s Danube and the United States’ Mississippi, the book journeys down the most important rivers in all corners of the globe. Wohl shows us how pollution, such as in the Ganges and in the Ob of Siberia, has affected biodiversity in the water. But rivers are also resilient, and Wohl stresses the importance of conservation and restoration to help reverse the effects of human carelessness and hubris. What all these diverse rivers share is a critical role in shaping surrounding landscapes and biological communities, and Wohl’s book ultimately makes a strong case for the need to steward positive change in the world’s great rivers.
