Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Night Boat to New York: Steamboats on the Connecticut, 1824-1931, is a portrait of the vanished steamboat days–when a procession of stately sidewheelers plied between Hartford and New York City, docking at Peck’s Slip on the East River in the shadow of the Brooklyn Bridge. At one time, Hartford could boast two thousand steamboat arrivals and departures in a year. Altogether, some thirty-five large steamboats were in service on the Connecticut River in these years, largely on the Hartford to New York City route. These Long Island Sound steamers, unlike the tubby, wedding cake dowagers of Western waters, were long, sleek craft, with sharp prows cutting a neat wake as they cruised along. Departing each afternoon from State Street or Talcott Street wharf in Hartford, the “night boats” reached New York at daybreak, inaugurating a pattern of city commuting that continues to this day. Steamboating not only brought people and goods—Colt’s firearms and Essex’s pianos—down river to New York for export to world markets, but also helped America’s inland “Spa Culture” transplant itself to the seashore, making steamboating not just convenient transportation but also a social phenomenon noted by such writers as Charles Dickens and Mark Twain. No wonder crowds wept in the fall of 1931, when the last steamboats, made obsolete by the automobile, churned away from the dock and headed downriver—never to return.

Book Synopsis Along the Connecticut River by : Phyllis Lavelle
Download or read book Along the Connecticut River written by Phyllis Lavelle and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1996-10-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Often constant and serene, but sometimes fierce and rushing, the waters of the Connecticut River serve as most of the border between Vermont and New Hampshire. The seven towns included in this pictorial history are uniquely linked to each other across this river. We are fortunate that many of the residents of this area frequently had cameras in hand to record both the milestones and the day-to-day happenings in their lives and communities. More than 200 images, many never before published, have been woven with informative text to create this remarkable visual history. Come watch the turn-of-the-century steamboat Gypsy, as she carries passengers on Lake Morey; see whetstones quarried in the Pike area of Haverhill, or experience a 1914 theater performance at the town hall in Orfordville. Visit a family farm in Piermont, taste the old-time strawberry harvest in Bradford, or attend a 1907 barn building in Newbury.

The Essex area was also home to dedicated craftsmen who produced some of the finest yachts ever built.

Download or read book The Steam Tug written by George Swede and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2010-09-30 with total page 174 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Steam Tug is a historical read about the evolution of the steam engine and steam tug. Developed and patented in England in 1737, the author takes the reader to the end of the roaring 1850s in New York Harbor. It was not until 1807 that Robert Fulton introduced the first commercially successful steamboat the “Clermont” on the Hudson River in New York. In the early 1800s sailing ships entering the harbor would lie at anchor in Sandy Hook for days and weeks waiting for wind to power them into the harbor so they could offload their cargo. Due to the expansion of shipping and commerce during the mid 1800s, sailing ships realized that small steam ferries operating between Staten Island and lower Manhattan could tow them into local wharfs to discharge their cargo and begin loading domestic goods to distant ports abroad saving valuable time. With the advent of large clipper ships, increased commerce and advanced steam boats, would lead to the rise and birth of a new industry, The Towing Business.
