Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginnings of New York: Kingston the First State Capital When the report of the first exploration of the Hudson reached Holland it immediately called forth action on the part of the enterprising Dutch traders. It was at the time when Holland "swept the seas," both from a naval and commercial point of view. So, in the year following the ascent of the "North River" by the Half Moon, the trade of what is now New York began; continuing from that time, 1610, with ever increasing impetus.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History and Legend, Fact, Fancy and Romance of the Old Mine Road: Kingston, N. To the Mine Holes of Pahaquarry Like the butterfly on the flower-strewn plain, the traveler on foot can laugh at fences or ditches and flit from interest to interest, taking no thought for the highway. Be it a panorama from some hilltop or an old family burial ground in the remote comer of a pasture lot, it is but the storming of a few rails or a bit of barbed wire and a brief walk amid the field flowers, or between rows of growing corn. Hence no excuse is offered for taking this trip on foot; rather do we commend ourself for having selected the best method of travel for the purpose. It is quite out of the question for the ordinary pen to adequately depict or praise the beauties of such a region as is traversed by our Old Mine Road. A region of mountains and valleys, brooks and waterfalls, country that yields a rich return to the farmer or that is still wild with heaped rock masses, all embroidered with exquisite patterns of mountain and stream and meadowland. All this aside from the richness of its history, its legend and romance. To be one with such pleasures for a week or more, with no care but to sip from the next cup when the present has sated, to make the few gracious friendships that are part of the experience, to carry home for the long Winter evenings the memory of it all, makes the traveler feel that he has been favored of the gods and has much to be thankful for.

Remarkable deliverances from savage brutal ity and a painful record of their atrocities, as well as the calamities arising from Christian warfare, which are necessarily blended with the recollection of great distress or imminent peril, and whether as men or citizens we now greatly rejoice, by that very joy we expressly declare that our fathers once had cause to mourn.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kingston: Its Representative Business Men and Its Points of Interest But the record of these happenings does not, strictly speaking, form a part of the early history of Kingston, for the first attempts at settlement in this place were made more than 150 years before the Revolution, so that in order to get at the first beginnings here we must go back to the good old days when Holland and not Britannia ruled the waves when the Dutch people were as bold explorers as they were successful traders and when no other nation was more respected or formed a more powerful factor in the world's development. We must go back to 1609, when Hendrick Hudson set sail from Hol land in the little ship Half-moon, furnished him by the Dutch East India Company, by whom he was commissioned to seek a passage to the East Indies. Having crossed the ocean, he coasted along the shores of America, and September 12, 1609, passed through a narrow strait, entered a magnificent bay.

Download or read book Kingston and the Magician s Lost and Found written by Rucker Moses and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-05-17 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Magic has all but disappeared in Brooklyn, but one tenacious young magician is determined to bring it back in this exciting middle grade mystery. Twelve-year-old Kingston has just moved from the suburbs back to Echo City, Brooklyn—the last place his father was seen alive. Kingston's father was King Preston, one of the world's greatest magicians. Until one trick went wrong and he disappeared. Now that Kingston is back in Echo City, he's determined to find his father. Somehow, though, when his father disappeared, he took all of Echo City's magic with him. Now Echo City—a ghost of its past—is living up to its name. With no magic left, the magicians have packed up and left town and those who've stayed behind don't look too kindly on any who reminds them of what they once had. When Kingston finds a magic box his father left behind as a clue, Kingston knows there's more to his father's disappearance than meets the eye. He'll have to keep it a secret—that is, until he can restore magic to Echo City. With his cousin Veronica and childhood friend Too Tall Eddie, Kingston works to solve the clues, but one wrong move and his father might not be the only one who goes missing.
Download or read book The Fifth Book of Peace written by Maxine Hong Kingston and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A long time ago in China, there existed three Books of Peace that proved so threatening to the reigning powers that they had them burned. Many years later Maxine Hong Kingston wrote a Fourth Book of Peace, but it too was burned--in the catastrophic Berkeley-Oakland Hills fire of 1991, a fire that coincided with the death of her father. Now in this visionary and redemptive work, Kingston completes her interrupted labor, weaving fiction and memoir into a luminous meditation on war and peace, devastation and renewal.
