Facts. Places. People. New York. Franklin B. Hough's classic Gazetteer gathers the state into one richly detailed portrait, built from observation, record, and hard numbers. If you love seeing a landscape take shape through names and measurements, this historical gazetteer reference delivers the thrill of discovery on every page. Part new york state directory, part statistical and geographical handbook, it offers county city town profiles that move from settlement history to the practical realities of civic life. Expect geological and topographical descriptions alongside historical statistics tables that capture communities in motion: borders, resources, waterways, industries, population, and institutions. For genealogy and local history, it is a powerful compass, helping you place an ancestor or a family story in the exact town and era. For an academic research reference, it remains invaluable, preserving a snapshot of nineteenth-century New York and antebellum New York State before later booms, redrawings, and reforms. Read it straight through for the grand sweep, or dip in as you would a New York State atlas and a county histories collection in one. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
