About This Item
1848 NEW YORK 1ed Westchester County MAP Colonial America Algonquian INDIANS 2v
A fascinating 1848 first edition printing of Robert Bolton's "History of the County of Westchester". This book is easily the most thorough and descriptive history of Westchester County, New York and western Connecticut covering the earliest settlements through the first half of the 19th-century. Bolton describes the Dutch settlers' encounters with Mohegan Indians and Algonquian tribes as well as the establishment and erection of churches throughout the county. Perhaps the most notable aspect of this work is the huge folding map found at the front of the first volume!
