Description
Bayles' Long Island Handbook is a comprehensive guide to the history, geography, and culture of Long Island, New York, written by Richard Mather Bayles in 1885. The book is divided into several sections, each focusing on a different aspect of life on Long Island. The first section provides an overview of the island's geography, including its topography, climate, and natural resources. The second section delves into the history of Long Island, from its earliest Native American inhabitants to the arrival of European settlers and the growth of its towns and cities. The third section of the book is dedicated to the island's economy, including its agriculture, fisheries, and manufacturing industries. Bayles also provides detailed information on Long Island's transportation network, including its roads, railroads, and shipping routes. The fourth section of the book focuses on the island's communities, with detailed descriptions of each town and village on Long Island, as well as information on their schools, religious institutions, and social organizations. In addition to its historical and cultural information, Bayles' Long Island Handbook also includes a wealth of practical information for travelers and residents alike. The book includes maps of the island and its towns, as well as directories of hotels, restaurants, and other businesses. Bayles also provides a guide to the island's beaches, parks, and other recreational areas, making this book an invaluable resource for anyone interested in exploring Long Island's rich history and natural beauty.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
