Book Colonial Days in Old New York  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Colonial Days in Old New York Classic Reprint written by Alice Morse Earle and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Colonial Days in Old New York This book should perhaps have been "intituled" Colonial Days in New Netherland, for much of the life described herein was in the days of Dutch rule. But it was New Netherland for scarce half a century, and the name is half-forgotten, though it remained, both in outer life and in heart, a Dutch colonie, even when the province was New York and an English governor had control. In New Netherland, as in every place where the Dutch plant a colony, as in South Africa to-day, Dutch ways, Dutch notions, the Dutch tongue lingered long. To this day, Dutch influence and Dutch traits, as well as Dutch names, are ever present and are a force in New York Life.

Download or read book A Little Colonial Dame written by Agnes Carr Sage and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Little Colonial Dame: A Story of Old Manhattan Island In preparing this story of Colonial Days the best histories and biographies have been consulted and many bits of folklore unearthed in order to produce as true a picture as possible of those simple early times, while many a veritable incident has been interwoven with the fiction. The Indian myths are those that were handed down by the redskins from father to son, and to J. K. Paulding's "Book of St. Nicholas" am I indebted for the quaint legend of the patron saint of the New Netherlands as related by Nicholas Bayard. Catharine Dubois, the pirate Captain and a few minor characters were real personages who "lived and moved and had their being" in the middle of the seventeenth century. It is, then, with the hope that "A Little Colonial Dame" may win favor in the sight of her descendants and that she and her friends, white, black, and red, may help to revive fresh interest in the honest sturdy settlers of Manhattan Island, that this story of their joys and sorrows, festivals and sports is given to the young people of to-day.
