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 The Encyclopedia of New York State written by Peter Eisenstadt and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 2005-05-19 with total page 1960 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Encyclopedia of New York State is one of the most complete works on the Empire State to be published in a half-century. In nearly 2,000 pages and 4,000 signed entries, this single volume captures the impressive complexity of New York State as a historic crossroads of people and ideas, as a cradle of abolitionism and feminism, and as an apex of modern urban, suburban, and rural life. The Encyclopedia is packed with fascinating details from fields ranging from sociology and geography to history. Did you know that Manhattan's Lower East Side was once the most populated neighborhood in the world, but Hamilton County in the Adirondacks is the least densely populated county east of the Mississippi; New York is the only state to border both the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean; the Erie Canal opened New York City to rich farmland upstate . . . and to the west. Entries by experts chronicle New York's varied areas, politics, and persuasions with a cornucopia of subjects from environmentalism to higher education to railroads, weaving the state's diverse regions and peoples into one idea of New York State. Lavishly illustrated with 500 photographs and figures, 120 maps, and 140 tables, the Encyclopedia is key to understanding the state's past, present, and future. It is a crucial reference for students, teachers, historians, and business people, for New Yorkers of all persuasions, and for anyone interested in finding out more about New York State.
