THE BATTERY AND BOWLING GREEN. The lower end of Manhattan Island, below the Fort, was a narrow point of land terminating in a ledge of rocks, called Capskie or Little Cape. This name was afterwards corrupted into Copsie. It was in the earliest days known as Schreyers Hoek, or Shouters Point. The existence of a war between England and Spain was the cause of the erection of a battery at the end of the point, and it gave a name to the locality which still remains, although the fortification has been gone for more than a hundred years. The battery was built during the governorship of William Cosby, and was finished in July, 1735. This was the subject of a grand celebration, which ended with a most mournful accident. The full account is given in the "New York Gazette" of July 21 of that year: "The foundation and Ground Works of the new Battery on Whitehall rocks being finished on Wednesday the 16th instant, that day was appointed for the laying of the first stone of the Platform and the giving it a name. Accordingly his Excellency the Governor, attended by the Gentlemen of his Majesties Council, with the principal Gentlemen and merchants of the City performed the ceremony under the general discharge of the cannon planted for the occasion, and was pleased to call it George Augustus Royal Battery. Afterward his Excellency repaired to the booth erected on the Battery, where an elegant entertainment was prepared for him and the Company. After dinner, his Majesty's and the several Royal Health were drank, amid several discharges of the cannon, together with success to George's Battery. His Excellency gave an ox roasted whole upon it. to the workmen. Soldiers and people, with several barrels of Punch and Beer." "It is remarkable that...

Book Synopsis Bitter Waters by : David Haward Bain
Download or read book Bitter Waters written by David Haward Bain and published by ABRAMS. This book was released on 2011-08-18 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An intriguing, thorough study of a little-known scientific expedition to the Dead Sea by a mid-19th-century U.S. Navy lieutenant” (Kirkus Reviews). With customary depth and insight, David Haward Bain illumines the United States’s nineteenth-century exploration of the Holy Land. To lead the expedition, the navy tabbed William Francis Lynch, an officer eager to enter the esteemed yet dangerous field of Victorian exploration. Like many of his successful contemporaries, Lynch was well read and possessed an independent nature, but a man who also preferred organization to chaos, and with a character that tended toward the obsessive. The expedition would force a juxtaposition of the ancient world with the modern, as the world’s newest power attempted an exhaustive scientific study of the waters of the cradle of civilization. Beyond its fascinating topic, Bitter Waters is full of broad allusions from the period that demonstrate Bain’s deep understanding of America, and serve to make the work appealing for general scholars and lay readers. Heroically engaging unfamiliar terrain, hostile Bedouins, and ancient mysteries, Lynch and his party epitomize their nation’s spirit of Manifest Destiny in the days before the Civil War. “An engrossing narrative of the expedition that richly positions the mission’s incidents within Lynch’s Western perspective on the Near East. Wonderfully realized, Bain’s account will enthrall seekers of history off the beaten path.” —Booklist (starred review) “David Haward Bain, author of Empire Express, paints a vivid picture of the ambitious, visionary seafarers and their bold adventure . . . Bitter Waters captures this fascinating moment in American history.” —History Book Club (official selection)
