Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Catalogue of the Historical Collection and Objects of Related Interest at the Children's Museum
The history of New York hinges on the discovery by Hudson of what is now New York Bay and the Hudson River: but for this there would have been no Dutch colonies. So all the history of this part of the country dates from the coming oi' Henry Hudson, which set in motion the train of events whose record we call history leading to the conditions existing at the present time.
