Download or read book Canal Boatman written by Richard Garrity and published by Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1984-07-01 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Garrity grew up on his father's boats on the Erie Canal in the early years of this century. From 1905 until 1916, when his father operated boats first in the lumber trade and later for gravel hauling, he was surrounded by the busy life of a now-bygone era in canal boating in Upstate New York. When the Barge Canal System opened in 1918, Garrity began a career that lasted until his retirement as a tug engineer in 1970. This story is chock full of Americana that is not only significant and authentic but engagingly written. Garrity's life and work have been intimately bound up with the famed Big Ditch, which has been referred to in more romantic literature as the "shining ribbon of water." It was a hard but happy life on the waterways of Upstate New York as seen in the text and dozens of illustrations included in this book.

Book Synopsis The New York State Canal System: A History Beyond the Erie by : Susan Peterson Gateley
Download or read book The New York State Canal System: A History Beyond the Erie written by Susan Peterson Gateley and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2023-06 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: New York's unique and majestic canals stretch over 524 miles from Albany to Buffalo and between the southern tier counties of Tompkins and Schuyler to the Quebec border. While much has been written on the nation building Erie Canal of the nineteenth century, much less has covered the third iteration of the waterway, the New York State Barge Canal. Deemed a historic corridor by the Federal Parks system in 2000, the Empire State's canal system has been in continuous operation since 1825, longer than any other man made transportation system in North America. Author Susan P. Gateley reveals the history, beauty and present day state of New York State's grand canal system.
Book Synopsis Erie Canal Sings, The: A Musical History of New York’s Grand Waterway by : Bill Hullfish With Dave Ruch
Download or read book Erie Canal Sings, The: A Musical History of New York’s Grand Waterway written by Bill Hullfish With Dave Ruch and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2019 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life working along the banks of the Erie Canal is preserved in the songs of America's rich musical history. Thomas Allen's "Low Bridge, Everybody Down" has achieved iconic status in the American songbook, but its true story has never been told until now. Erie songs such as "The E-ri-e Is a-Risin'" would transform into "The C&O Is a-Risin'" as the song culture spread among a network of other canals, including the Chesapeake and Ohio and the Pennsylvania Main Line. As motors replaced mules and railroads emerged, the canal song tradition continued on Broadway stages and in folk music recordings. Author Bill Hullfish takes readers on a musical journey along New York's historic Erie Canal.
