This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Home Geography of New York City Wholesome pride in one's home, one's immediate surroundings, and one's own city engenders not only a love for this circumscribed area, but opens the heart for the larger love, - the love of country and of humanity. Home geography emphasizes man's intimate connection with surrounding geographical features and, his dependence upon them; it shows how man utilizes the opportunities Offered by nature to establish relationships with her; it dwells upon man's expediency in turning to profitable account the resources of his environment; and it also arouses in the learner a feeling of reverence for those responsible for the great changes wrought, and for the institutions that helped to effect those changes. Home geography does not restrict itself to present conditions alone, it concerns itself with the past. While it gives us a faithful picture of the present, it describes the local conditions of former times. In other words, it is not only an outlook into space but the starting point for history. The value of home geography lies in the fact that it enables the teacher to present concretely the geographical features of the vicin ity. With these features, thus Observed, as basal ideas, the learner can be taught by analogy to get a clear idea of such forms as do not come within his immediate experience. In short, home geography is practical geography, and should, therefore, be the preparatory step to geography in general.

Download or read book Geography of New York State written by John H. Thompson and published by . This book was released on 1977-04 with total page 610 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a book for everyone with a personal or professional interest in the Empire State, an essential source of information for industry, commerce, government, development groups, state and local organizations, teachers, students, and present and prospective residents. Written by professionals in terms understandable to the layperson, this book covers the physical, historical, and economic geography of the state. Geography of New York State is unique among state geographies in the breadth of its coverage. The first section examines the physical aspects of the state, region by region—its landforms, climate, water, vegetation, and soil. In the second section, the changing pattern of human occupation and use of the land is traced from earliest Indian days to the 1960s. A discussion of the state's economic activities makes up the third section. This is an informed, detailed analysis of each of the major economic sectors: agriculture, mining, lumbering, fishing; manufacturing and construction; sales and service. It examines their changing relative importance to the state's economy and provides a projection of future economic trends. In the fourth section, the nature and potential of urban and rural areas are contrasted, and suggestions are made for rational planning and development regions. New York's seven major urban systems are given special attention in the fifth section of the book. Separate chapters offer detailed studies of Albany-Schenectady, Binghamton, Buffalo, New York, Rochester, Syracuse, and Utica—their history, physical setting, economic activities, problems, and prospects for future growth. This volume includes three maps of New York State, New York State mineral production, and projected land use. A thirty-two-page supplement, with updated comments and data, is also available.

Download or read book A Geographical History of the State of New York written by Joseph H. Mather and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-25 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geographical History of the State of New York This Work has been prepared with great care and labor and presents the following claims to the patronage of the people of New York. It gives historical sketches of the first settlement of the state, and of each County, compiled from the most authentic sources, also the date of the settlement of each town, in chronological order. It presents the Geography of the State, accompanied by Maps of the State, and of each County, - correctly delineating the county and town lines of boundary, and representing the localities of the most important cities and villages. These maps are of very great importance to the scholar and reader of this work, aiding him in his knowledge of locality, without which all geographical research is only superficial. In the absence of a reference map, they serve as a substitute to a good degree, especially in defining the boundaries of counties and towns, being free from names, they are perfectly distinct to the eye. It also gives all the most valuable particulars of the late Geological Survey, not only in relation to the Geology and Mineralogy, but also to the Botany and Zoology of the State. To the Politician it is a valuable manual, furnishing him with the new Constitution, the organization of the different departments of the State Government, the history of the land purchases, which have been the source of much controversy in the State, and the Statistics of wealth, manufactures and population in each County. To the friend of education, this book is valuable on account of its full and accurate statistics of the history, progress, and present condition of the Public Schools, the Normal School, the Universities, Colleges and Academies in the state, together with the Common School System. It is emphatically a book for the family, and as such we offer it to the people of the State of New York.
