Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The House on the Hudson "Do you see this ring? What of it? 'Tis a figure a symbol say; A thing's sign: now for the thing signified." "Some lapidary, in a narrow home of European cities, had perhaps spent his prime upon the precious toil, cutting it by dawn and sunset, and retouching it at starlight." "I repeat it, Mrs. Derohan, I repeat it," cried Lord Ebbrides, his usually well-modulated voice high and harsh through irritation. "Every man, woman, and child has their price!" "Bad grammar - and a false creed," said my mother. Lord Ebbrides's angry tones attracted the attention of my mother's other guests, who filled almost to overflowing the narrow strip of garden in front of our tall French villa, and they ceased their own gay chatter to listen. "I'll back my opinion to any amount, Mrs. Derohan. You can buy - " But he was interrupted by a clamor of voices. Everybody had an opinion and gave it loudly. Everybody talked, nobody listened.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Manhatta: A Legend of the Hudson IN presenting this volume to the public, the author cannot but claim the indulgence due to one who has ventured upon a previously un trodden ground. The romancer and novelist have indeed explored the wilds of Indian char acter, and imaginatively and even poetically portrayed, in prose the lives and contests of the red-men. But the poet, to whom the simplicity of their lives, the vigor of their hardy natures, and the mystery of their origin, existence, and de cay, seem so suggestive of poetic imaginations, has passed over the field, or only contributed to the world short though beautiful reminiscences of that primitive people.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Ter-Centenary of the Hudson: And Centennial of the Steamboat The fall of 1909 will witness the striking and important joint celebration of Hendrick Hudson's discovery of the Hudson, three hundred years ago, and of Robert Fulton's epoch making experiment in steam navigation in 1807. Imposing observances, religious, musical, literary, historical, military and naval, will mark the occasion and the whole Hudson valley will participate. On Saturday, September 25, the Half Moon and the "Cler-Mont" are to be officially received in New York harbor, and on the evening of that date there is to be a grand night pageant and illumination off Riverside Drive, which will probably be the greatest event of its kind in the history of New York City. An historical parade will mark Tuesday, September 25th, and a military, Thursday, September 30th, both in New York City. A facsimile of the "Half Moon," Hudson's ship, and of the "Cler-Mont." Fulton's steamboat, will be a part of the great naval parade which will start from New York, Friday, October 1 st, and pass on up the river by slow stages, till Troy is reached, Saturday, October 9th.

Download or read book The Hudson Highlands Classic Reprint written by and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hudson Highlands "In all its length far-winding way Of promontory, creek, and bay, And islands that, empurpled bright, Floated amid the livelier light, And mountains that, like giants stand, To sentinel enchanted land." Two million people, about one twentieth of the population of the United States, live in and about the cities of New York and Brooklyn, or within a radius of twenty miles from the Battery. Of this number comparatively few have ever seen the Hudson Highlands. The fare from New York to Cozzeus, West Point or Newburgh, is 75 cents. There is no city so fortunate in its surroundings as our own metropolis, with the finest bay and harbor in the world, and a river at its very doors grander than the Rhino, the Danube, or any of the storied streams of Europe. The Hudson was called by the Spaniards the River of the Mountains, and the name is suggestive of its grand surroundings. In its short course of 250 miles from the wilderness to the sea, it takes in fifty miles of the Adirondacks, thirty miles of the Catskills, twenty miles of the Highlands, and fifteen miles of the Palisades. In this little guide or pamphlet we propose to call attention to the Hudson Highlands, promising to do something more worthy of this mountain district another season. In our "Hudson by Daylight," one of the divisions is marked The Highland's "Sublimity," as distinguished from the Tappau Zee "Repose," and the Catskills "Beauty," and we use a port of this section in this edition. It is an accepted and established truth (and well known since the day Willis moved to Idlewild), that the Cornwall slope of Storm King is the place to find health.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elsie on the Hudson and Elsewhere Oh, what a lovely sight! Exclaimed Ln cilla. I am so glad, papa, that we are out in time to see it. Yes, he said, it is worth the giving up of an extra hour of sleep. Especially as we can take that during the day if we feel the need of it. I would never have you do without needed sleep, daughter. There is nothing gained by it in the end. N o, papa, but I think I do not need so much as do some others, - Gracie, for instance, - and I do so enjoy these early walks and talks with you - the dearest father that ever any girl had, I am sure, she added, giving him a look of ardent affection. Ah, but you must remember there are some fathers you haven't tried, he returned with a slight laugh of amusement, but accompanied by a fond pressure of the pretty white hand she had slipped into his. Yet I am just as sure as if I had tried them all, father, she laughed. There may perhaps be some few nearly as good, but I know they can't be any better. Oh, see!

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lost Gold Mine of the Hudson The visitor to Mount Beacon or to other lofty heights on the northerly side of the Highlands of the Hudson, cannot fail to notice the three ranges of mountains which run nearly parallel with each other for a long distance west of the river. Viewed in connection with the majestic Hudson itself and the lovely intervening valleys which they overlook, these ranges render that region strikingly picturesque and beautiful; The one nearest the river and only a few miles from it, comprises a number of thickly wooded hills, varying in height from seven hundred to one thousand feet above the sea level.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Hudson River, by Pen and Pencil: For Tourists and Others The traveler, indeed, should remember that effects of scenery depend very much upon the hour in which they are seen, and the conditions of the sky. A really grand mountain looks dwarfed at mid day, with the sun pouring down a blaze of light upon it, without a shadow to relieve its surface; the same mountain towers nobly with the sun shining behind it, and its top purpling in the twilight. On cloudy days, mountains and hills take a monotonous gray, and lose that brilliant vivacity which on a fair day shadow and sheen will give them. No one, in truth, knows what any scene really is for beauty. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
