This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Early History Long Island Sound and Its Approaches Harrisses gives us the following translation from Ramusio, vol. iii., fos. 423-426, with a map bearing the inscription La Noovo Francia. The discourse is not dated; but Ramusio in his introduction says that it was written in the year 1539. - "This Coast was discovered 15 years ago by Giovanna da Varrazzano who took possession of the same in the name of King Francis and of my Lady the Regent. That Country is called French Land by many, even by the Portugues themselves." "The Regent was Louise de Savoie, the mother of Francis I., and this seems to account for the inscription both on the Maggiolo and Varrazano Maps." "Luisa," named for the French king's mother, is an island off the south coast of New England, and Adrian Block, in 1614, laid it down on his chart. It is now known as Block Island. Mercator's map of the world gives the globe a flat surface, and by his system of projection in proportional parts he locates in the right latitude and longitude C. S. St. John (Sandy Hook) which is also called, about this date, Cabo de Arenas, and Cabo da Malabrigo (Bad Shelter) for the southern part of Cape Cod, and he gives the indentation in the coast for Long Island Sound, which he names Baia Hondo, which, I am inclined to think is the first European name known to navigators; of this important arm of the sea called later by the Dutch "East River," a route through which, let me add, now more value passes in one direction than over any other water way on the American coast. It is my opinion, based on years of careful study of this problem, that during the fifteenth century when European navigators were engaged in exploring this section of the coast of New England, there was a chain of islands along the coast, which we will now locate south of a line drawn from Plymouth, Massachusetts, to Sandy Hook in New Jersey. They were sandy islands, compounded from the remnant of the Glacial formation on which Professor Dana of Yale has enlightened us; deposits of which here and there cling to rocks for a basis.

Book Synopsis This Fine Piece of Water by : Tom Andersen
Download or read book This Fine Piece of Water written by Tom Andersen and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2002-01-01 with total page 276 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long Island Sound is not only the most heavily used estuary in North America, it is also one of the most beautiful waterways, with picturesque seascapes and landfalls. But centuries of pollution and other abuse have gradually been killing off its marine life and have pushed the Sound to the brink of disaster. This fascinating book traces the history of the Sound and its use as a resource from the time of contact between the Native Americans and Dutch traders through the suburban sprawl of recent decades--and tells how a group of scientists and citizens has been working to save the Sound from ruin. Tom Andersen begins by describing the dramatic events of the summer of 1987, when a condition called hypoxia (lack of dissolved oxygen in the water brought about by a combination of pollution and other factors) killed large numbers of fish and lobsters in the Sound. He discusses how scientists first documented and explained the development of hypoxia and how research and cleanup are now being carried out to restore the Sound. Interweaving current events, natural history, and human history, Andersen presents a cautionary tale of exploitation without concern for preservation.
