The East River captures the history of New York's premier waterway.
The river, a source of life for Native Americans, spawned
communities from Brooklyn to Harlem. Its shipyards and docks
projected American enterprise around the world. The waterfront, an
industrial and commercial dynamo, forged a continent. The dreams of
immigrants who arrived and lived on its banks created this nation.
The river's strong currents guarded prisons and hospital
quarantines while keeping secret legends of gold on its bottom. The
sinews of a great city are knitted by more than a score of its
tunnels and bridges. Today, a renaissance draws people to this
river, the heart of New York.
Originally published in 1987 Barnaby Rudge is a comprehensive
collection of bibliographical resources surrounding Dickens fifth
novel Barnaby Rudge. The book addresses what the author terms, a
'prevalent lack of research' surrounding the novel. The collection
lists bibliographic references which not only looks at the novel
itself, but also covers older resources that interested Dicken's
first critics, such as the originality of the settings and
characters. The book's core focus is examining the novel's
historical subject matter in the context of the social and
political context in which it was written. The book acts as a core
resource for research on Barnaby Rudge.
