Are UFO's of man or are they from alien worlds? This book presents strong arguments that will steer you towards the truths. It contains detailed testimony of numerous UFO eyewitnesses including two frightening close encounters with many sightings occurring near military installations. It covers the massive UFO flap occurring in 1988 in New York's Hudson Valley that extended into the early 1990's. Intimate details are given on personal experiences recent as 2004. From hardcore facts to far-fetched concepts, the author has consumed and digested a phenomenal amount of information related to UFO's as well as the known and speculated science behind them. The far-flung, multi-faceted research conducted by the author over many years is summarized and expressed for all those with a thirst to know. This book contains new revelations about the UFO landing in North Hudson Park, New Jersey in 1975. Fiery opinions are expressed based on thought provoking historical knowledge, both published and shared amongst those who are fascinated by this subject.

Slavery and Freedom in the Mid-Hudson Valley

Slavery and Freedom in the Mid-Hudson Valley

Michael E. Groth

State University of New York Press
2017
sidottu
Explores the long-neglected rural dimensions of northern slavery and emancipation in New York's Mid-Hudson Valley.Slavery and Freedom in the Mid-Hudson Valley focuses on the largely forgotten history of slavery in New York and the African American freedom struggle in the central Hudson Valley prior to the Civil War. Slaves were central actors in the drama that unfolded in the region during the Revolution, and they waged a long and bitter battle for freedom during the decades that followed. Slavery in the countryside was more oppressive than slavery in urban environments, and the agonizingly slow pace of abolition, constraints of rural poverty, and persistent racial hostility in the rural communities also presented formidable challenges to free black life in the central Hudson Valley.Michael E. Groth explores how Dutchess County's black residents overcame such obstacles to establish independent community institutions, engage in political activism, and fashion a vibrant racial consciousness in antebellum New York. By drawing attention to the African American experience in the rural Mid-Hudson Valley, this book provides new perspectives on slavery and emancipation in New York, black community formation, and the nature of black identity in the Early Republic.

The Manors and Historic Homes of the Hudson Valley

The Manors and Historic Homes of the Hudson Valley

Harold Donaldson Eberlein

STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK PRESS

A classic guide to the history and architecture of the historic manors and homes of the Hudson River ValleyHarold Donaldson Eberlein's The Manors and Historic Homes of the Hudson Valley has been considered an essential and elegant resource ever since its first publication by J.B. Lippincott in 1924. Profusely illustrated with drawings, classic prints, and photographs (many of the latter taken by the author himself), the book not only discusses the architecture and beauty of more than thirty-five historically relevant estates and homesteads, but also contextualizes their varied histories amid key social and political disruptions, ranging from the rise of the Dutch through to the American Revolution and the heyday of the patroonships overseen by such families as the Livingstons, the Van Rensselaers, and the Van Cortlandts. Eberlein saw the old manors and historic homes of the Hudson Valley as vital signposts to that history of the region- a history "inseparably bound up with the old houses that stand upon both banks of the river, and [a history which] without them … would lose its dramatic force and become a dull, dead abstraction." This new edition features an introduction by historian Ed Renehan who sets the work in the context of its time, and many new photographs. This book is an indispensable resources for those interested in New York state history and the stories behind some of its best-loved homes.
