The Discovery of the Ancient City of Norumbega is a historical book written by Eben Norton Horsford in 1890. The book is a communication addressed to the President and Council of the American Geographical Society, in which the author presents his research and findings on the ancient city of Norumbega. Horsford's work is based on his extensive research on the history of the New England region and his exploration of the area where the ancient city was believed to be located. The author provides a detailed account of the city's history, its architecture, and the culture of the people who lived there. The book also includes illustrations and maps that help readers visualize the city and its surroundings. Horsford's research led him to believe that Norumbega was a major commercial center that existed long before the arrival of European explorers in the region. The author's findings challenged the prevailing belief at the time that the New England region was a wilderness before the arrival of Europeans. The book was widely read and discussed by scholars and historians, and it remains an important work in the field of American history and geography. Overall, The Discovery of the Ancient City of Norumbega is a fascinating and informative book that sheds light on an important part of American history and culture.At Their Special Session In Watertown, November 21, 1889.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
