Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Centennial History of the Town of Dryden 1797-1897 It is hoped that the poorest part of this book will prove to be its binding, which is not as good as we might wish, but the best which the funds remaining at the disposal of the Committee could supply. In contemplating and providing for the mechanical part of the work, after deciding that the book should be supplied to subscribers at one dollar per copy, it was determined that the paper and print as well as the illustrations should be good, and then what was left of the proceeds should be devoted to the binding, which, if not very substantial, could be more easily renewed, if the inside should in the future be found worthy of new covers. It has been the misfortune of many local histories to be the offspring of the greed of ambitious publishers, who furnished expensive volumes without much regard for historical accuracy. This cannot be charged against this undertaking, which is a labor of love and the outgrowth of a Centennial Celebration of the first settlement of the town of Dryden, the details of which are given in the concluding chapter of this volume. The same Executive Committee who had charge of that happy event have devoted their time and energies unitedly and gratuitously to the preparation of this work, each member paying for his copy the same as those who have not contributed their time so freely. But the burden has not been borne by the Committee alone. Many others have lent their aid and it has been surprising as well as gratifying to the writer to receive contributions of so much valuable material for this work, which in a little time would be hopelessly lost if not preserved by some such undertaking as this. It has exhibited the hearty good will and favor with which the efforts of the Committee have been seconded and sustained and has resulted in a much more comprehensive and complete history of the town than was at first contemplated. The number of subscriptions for the work, largely exceeding the estimates, has provided the financial means necessary to add more embellishments to the mere history that at first could be hoped for.

Download or read book Dryden s Second Hundred Years written by Elizabeth Gutchess and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-11 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dryden's Second Hundred Years (Part I) chronicles life in a small farming village in Central New York during the first half of the twentieth century. But along with a close reading of the local scene-its telephones, roads, real and rumored milk strikes, and letters back home from the trenches of two wars-this narrative has a wide arc and rich texture: author Elizabeth Denver Gutchess dovetails local history with national and international events which shaped and countered it-as she explores connections and disconnections between this small community and the world at large. Essentially, in fact, Dryden's Second Hundred Years records a transformation of place, as Dryden's tightly woven social fabric slowly unraveled during the century, while ever-lengthening strands of road and cable reached farther and farther beyond this small hill-rimmed valley-weaving ever wider and more life-enhancing communities for the people who live here. At a time when the process of globalization outweighs all things local, however, it is important to keep balance. The global village, as many have warned, will be enriched not by neglecting the local but by taking care of it. One way to do that is simply to know and understand the local past. Like the body of fine work already produced by Dryden historians-and by local historians everywhere-this book might help us do that.

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.

This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best Books of the Month: Wall Street Journal, Kirkus Reviews From the Pulitzer Prize–winning author of The Gulf, a sweeping cultural and natural history of the bald eagle in America. The bald eagle is regal but fearless, a bird you’re not inclined to argue with. For centuries, Americans have celebrated it as “majestic” and “noble,” yet savaged the living bird behind their national symbol as a malicious predator of livestock and, falsely, a snatcher of babies. Taking us from before the nation’s founding through inconceivable resurgences of this enduring all-American species, Jack E. Davis contrasts the age when native peoples lived beside it peacefully with that when others, whether through hunting bounties or DDT pesticides, twice pushed Haliaeetus leucocephalus to the brink of extinction. Filled with spectacular stories of Founding Fathers, rapacious hunters, heroic bird rescuers, and the lives of bald eagles themselves—monogamous creatures, considered among the animal world’s finest parents—The Bald Eagle is a much-awaited cultural and natural history that demonstrates how this bird’s wondrous journey may provide inspiration today, as we grapple with environmental peril on a larger scale.
