This book was released on 2017-11-11 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Municipal Government of the City of New York Primarily 1117111117720! Government of 1716 City ocw York was written for the purpose of enabling the pupils of the schools to know their own city. The introductory chapters give in story form the purchase of Manhattan Island and its growth under the Dutch and English governments. They also give the history of the city immediately following the Revolution. The chapters take up each administrative depart ment of the city government from its very beginning and tell, in detail, of its development and the manner in which it is managed at the present time. In order to bring the book up to date each department of the municipal government was most carefully studied under the immediate and helpful supervision of the Commissioner or some one delegated by him. After each chapter was written it was read critically by an official of the department treated. For this reason it can be stated without hesitation that the book is accurately brought up to date. As can readily be seen the authors are under the greatest obligation to the heads of the administrative departments and others connected with the municipal government, who gave such generous help and kindly advice while the book was being revised.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of the City of New York In writing the story of New York, it has been the author's purpose to present a brief but comprehensive survey of the causes which led to the founding of the city, and of the various agencies which contributed to its marvellous growth, and to combine with this a narrative of such domestic details and romantic or picturesque incidents as would serve to render the picture clear and complete. The author hopes that his volume, while planned more particularly for the requirements of younger readers, may be found of service to citizens of all ages who may wish to inform themselves concerning the chief events in the history of the great city of the New World, and who may not find time for larger and more elaborate histories. It is startling to think that in twenty-five years, if the present rate of increase is continued, New York, with her history of two hundred and fifty years, will surpass London, with a life-time of twenty centuries, and will become the capital of the world - that is, in wealth and population.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The City of Watertown: New York The climate of Northern New York is, with the exception of perhaps two months of extreme cold in the winter, pleasing and invigorating. The Autumn, Spring and Summer seasons are delightful and the winters, while often cold, are of a kind which does not usually affect the health of the people adversely. That Watertown is a healthful place is proven by the health records of the State of New York, which show that during 1906 the death rate was only sixteen per one thousand inhabitants. Few cities are more pleasing to the casual visitor than is Watertown with its handsome public buildings, well kept Public Square which may justly be termed the center of the business activities of the city, the beauti ful parks and the scores of handsome homes, of which Watertown is justly proud and which surpass in point of attractiveness those of any city of the size of Watertown in New York state.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the City of New York, Vol. 1 The earliest record of the existence of the American Continent is found among the literary legacies of the Icelanders of the tenth century, who were superior to the continental people of that age both in mental vigor and physical endurance. But their discoveries were the result of hap hazard adventure rather than scientific probabilities, and their efforts at colonization were signal failures. From their geographical works we find that they supposed these western lands to be a part of Europe; and, while the accounts of their expeditions were carefully preserved, not a line was committed to parchment until many centuries had passed, so that there is very little reason for presuming that succeeding generations were materially benefited by reason of them.
