About the Book
Rondout: A Hudson River Port tells a tale of floods, fires and plagues, of commercial enterprise and the acquisition of vast, untaxed fortunes, as well as the expression of public spiritedness in both peace and war. From its early days of Dutch settlement to the boom years of the nineteenth century after the construction of the Delaware & Hudson Canal to the final flowering of Rondout at Kingston Point, this book portrays the vibrant, often rambunctious life on one of our country’s great river ports and the characters who built it.
