Dunwell presents a rich portrait of the Hudson and of the visionary people whose deep relationship with the river inspires changes in American history and culture. Lavishly illustrated with color plates of Hudson River School paintings, period engravings, and glass plate photography, The Hudson captures the spirit of the river through the eyes of its many admirers. It shows the crucial role of the Hudson in the shaping of Manhattan, the rise of the Empire State, and the trajectory of world trade and global politics, as well as the river's influence on art and architecture, engineering, and conservation UR - https://doi.org/10.7312/dunw13640 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9780231509961 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9780231509961/original ER -
