Download or read book A Home Geography of New York City Classic Reprint written by Gustave Straubenmuller and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Home Geography of New York City Wholesome pride in one's home, one's immediate surroundings, and one's own city engenders not only a love for this circumscribed area, but opens the heart for the larger love, - the love of country and of humanity. Home geography emphasizes man's intimate connection with surrounding geographical features and, his dependence upon them; it shows how man utilizes the opportunities Offered by nature to establish relationships with her; it dwells upon man's expediency in turning to profitable account the resources of his environment; and it also arouses in the learner a feeling of reverence for those responsible for the great changes wrought, and for the institutions that helped to effect those changes. Home geography does not restrict itself to present conditions alone, it concerns itself with the past. While it gives us a faithful picture of the present, it describes the local conditions of former times. In other words, it is not only an outlook into space but the starting point for history. The value of home geography lies in the fact that it enables the teacher to present concretely the geographical features of the vicin ity. With these features, thus Observed, as basal ideas, the learner can be taught by analogy to get a clear idea of such forms as do not come within his immediate experience. In short, home geography is practical geography, and should, therefore, be the preparatory step to geography in general.

Download or read book GEOGRAPHY OF SARATOGA COUNTY S written by Adelbert a. Lavery and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-08 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Geography of Saratoga County, State of New York Now we will go with one of these parties which has come down the Mohawk to the mouth of Alphlats - or Eel Place Creek - so named from the number of eels found there. Their canoes were made from white birch bark, bound over a frame and held together by strips of deer skin, and made water tight by filling the holes with Spruce gum. Each Indian wore moccasins, had a blanket, hatchet, knife, bow and arrows, and a spear for spearing fish. After paddling up this stream as far as they could they would carry their canoes to Ballston Lake, then down this and its outlet to about East Line, when they would carry their canoes again and this time to the Mourning Kill. (see Galway.) Then they could paddle all the way to Saratoga Lake, thru Fish Kill to the Hudson river, where they could hunt, or by going farther north could find their enemies. Sometimes they Went down the Mohawk to just below Crescent, in the town of Halfmoon, and from here carry, their canoes to the Hudson. Many times they went afoot from about Schen ectady, up along Middle Line road to Milton Centre. From here they went northwesterly to near L'ake Desolation, where they could join parties coming thru from Fonda, and could hunt, or go north just west of Mt. Mcgregor, to the Hudson, where, if they were going to fight the Indians of the St. Lawrence, they would cross and go to Lake George and then down Lake Champlain. From near Lake Desolation a trail ran east thru Wilton Village to the Hudson and later became a highway._ But these trails were not like our roads, but a dim path winding thru the woods and brush. It was over the one from Cham plain to Fonda that the first white man - the noble and lamented Father Isaac J ogues, a martyr to his faith - passed to his death near Tribes Hill - called by the Indians, Cach-na-na-ga - on the 18th of October, 1646. These trails, dyed by the blood of friends and foes were destined to play an important part in the making of the great United States. In fact to witness the most important victory in her striiggle for independence - Saratoga, one of the fifteen most important battles known. Having the only open route to the great west upon her south ern boundary, and to the north on her eastern, her fertile acres and noble pines and forests attracted early settlers. But before these the fur traders came to the great beaver grounds to buy furs of the Indians. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Physical Geography of New York State written by Ralph S. Tarr and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-15 with total page 419 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Physical Geography of New York State At the request of the American Geographical Society in 1896 a series of articles on the Physical Geography of New York State was undertaken and the first number appeared in the Bulletin of the American Geographical Society, Vol. XXVIII, 1896, page 99. When these articles were begun it was my intention to cover the subject in two or three numbers; but after getting well into the task it became evident that to cover the field with any fulness would require many more chapters than were originally planned and, therefore, the series lengthened out to twelve numbers and was not finished until 1900. Since the preparation of the manuscript called for the careful consideration of the work of various investigators, there necessarily developed in connection with the work a rather full bibliography of the physical geography of New York; and, since the work of these investigators was made use of to such a marked extent, references were made to the numerous articles. The series therefore contained a rather full bibliography. As there is at present no complete account of the physiographic features of New York State, and no published bibliography of the literature on this subject, it has seemed to me well to group these articles together in a single publication, especially since the Bulletin of the, American Geographical Society is inaccessible to most geography teachers. I have been led to believe that there is some call for such a treatment on the part of the more progressive geography teachers in the State, and it is for this class of readers, and for similar teachers in other sections of the country, that the book is primarily intended. While naturally the greater part of the material in the book is based upon the work of others, I have in many instances drawn upon my own observations in various parts of the State.
