This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Niagara River and Falls From Lake Erie to Lake Ontario, Vol. 2: A Series of One Hundred and Fifty-Three Original Drawings Tonawanda, the'little Island, in fact as well as in name, is scarcely distinguishable, as seen from the River, or from the banks of its imposing opposite neighbor, from the main land, so narrow is the little' stream that gives it, after many years of patient struggle with sedge and sand, its present insular character. In the pristine\ days of its unshorn and wild wood seclusion and beauty, when it was but a vine-fringed knoll of clustering trees and blooming shrubs, a mere leaf-clad, bird-tenanted islet, floating on the green current of the always beautiful River - it was truly an' object of acknowledged beauty, and much coveted as a place of residence. For which purpose, indeed, it has been many times owned by several admirers, and as many times held purchaseable with a little money. This was the untrimmed little fairy ground over which Nathaniel P. Willis, the dainty editor of the New York Mirror, sighed, - as he had often sighed 'over many another denied felicity and evasive illusion of life - to think that so charming a paradise, it was possible, if only, alas, the little money demanded for it could be conveniently had, to buy for one's own. One's own it has been at several periods since his day, and so is, happily, at the present time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Niagara Falls and Their History Classic Reprint written by G. K. Gilbert and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-07 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Niagara Falls and Their History The rains that make its oods dislodge particles of soil, and wash them into the tributaries in such multitude that they discolor the water. The pebbles of its bed and the mud with which it is discolored are the river's load, which it transports from the face of the land to the bed of the sea. The tributaries of Niagara carry their loads only to the lakes, where the loads sink, and leave the water pure. Thus Niagara is ever clear. Sometimes, when storm waves lash the shores of Erie, a little sand is washed to the head of the river, and carried downstream; sometimes a little mud is washed into the river by the small creeks that reach its banks. Thus Niagara is not absolutely devoid of load, but its burden is so minute that it is hard to detect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Spoliation of the Falls of Niagara Classic Reprint written by Joseph William Spencer and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-21 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Spoliation of the Falls of Niagara Jacques Cartier had ascended the St. Lawrence in 1535 and again a few years later. Champlain followed in his tracks as far up the river as Montreal (in 1603) five years before the settlement of Quebec. From the summit of the old volcanic mountain at Montreal he saw the first or Lachine rapids of the St. Lawrence, above which he could discern the smooth water of the expanded river, now known as Lake St. Louis. Here he received accounts from three different Indians as to the nature of the country beyond. Their communication must have been largely carried on by signs and diagrams, drawn on the sand. Although the first volume of Champlain's works is extremely rare, the accounts were transcribed by lescarbot in his history of New France, published soon after, in 1609. The description of the rapids and various lake-like expansions of the St. Lawrence, the Thousand Islands, Lake Ontario, the occurrence of Niagara with its rapids, and Lake Erie reaching to Lake Huron beyond which no man had been, were all so complete that a navigator unimpeded by hostile Indians could easily have found his way. But the natives were hostile, so that Lake Huron came to be known long before Lake Erie and the Niagara River.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Four Days at Niagara Falls, in North America Having crossed a creek, which I had been told was within eight or ten miles of The Falls, I leaned once more over the open side of our stage, and beheld, not without emotion, ascending in two columns, what Mrs. Butler has so beautifully characterized as "The everlasting incense of the waters." Their appearance resembled that of smoke; and, elsewhere, I should have regarded them as traces of the backwoodsman in the forest. At the same moment I heard a soft deep murmur; - it was the unceasing voice of The Falls which stole upon my ear. The road diverges from the river before approaching the village of Chippaway; an uninteresting drive of three or four miles farther, brought us to the "Pavilion." To the observer, from this elevated position, The Falls, both British and American, with part of the rapids, suddenly reveal themselves. Though not the finest view that may be obtained, yet it impressed me beyond all expectation. I had sensations of delight such as I never before experienced, and gave evidence of them by exclamations, such as I believe never before escaped me.
