This book traces the course of the river through four centuries, recounting the stories of explorers and traders, artists and writers, entrepreneurs and industrialists, ecologists and preservationists-those who have been shaped by the river as well as those who have helped shape it. Their compelling narratives attest to the Hudson River's distinctive place in American history and the American imagination.Among those who have figured in the history of the Hudson are Benedict Arnold, Alexander Hamilton, Franklin and Eleanor Roosevelt, the Astors and the Vanderbilts, and Thomas Cole of the Hudson River school. Their stories appear here, alongside those of such less famous individuals as the surveyor who found the source of the Hudson and the engineer who tried to build a hydroelectric plant at Storm King Mountain. Inviting us to view the river from a wider perspective than ever before, this entertaining and enlightening book is worthy of its grand subject. 606 $aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA)$2bisacsh 606 $aNATURE / Ecosystems & Habitats / Rivers$2bisacsh 607 $aHudson River (N.Y. and N.J.)$xHistory 607 $aHudson River Valley (N.Y. and N.J.)$xHistory 615 7$aHISTORY / United States / State & Local / Middle Atlantic (DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA). 615 7$aNATURE / Ecosystems & Habitats / Rivers. 676 $a974.7/3 686 $aRU 20357$2rvk 700 $aLewis$b Tom$f1942-$01166034 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910966986503321 996 $aThe Hudson$94357084 997 $aUNINA
