The Hudson, from the Wilderness to the Sea

Lossing unforgettably captured pre-Civil War America, when NYC numbered 300,000 people, and steamboats and railroads plied the Hudson River and its banks.  The Hudson Valley was pastureland and farmland surrounding a few sleepy villages and a handful of bustling river ports, and Revolutionary War exploits were still a hot topic of conversation.

Excerpt from The Pictorial Field-Book of the Revolution, Vol. 1 of 2: Or, Illustrations, by Pen and Pencil, of the History, Biography, Scenery, Relics, and Traditions of the War for Indepedence The plans of military movements have been drawn chie&#64258;y from British sources, for very few were made by the engineers in the Continental service. These appear to be generally pretty correct, so far as they represent the immediate movements of the armies in actual con&#64258;ict; but the general topographical knowledge possessed by those engineers, was quite defective. I have endeavored to detect and correct their inaccuracies, either in the drawings or in the illustrative descriptions.
