Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Discarded Daughter: Or the Children of the Isle The Island lies nine leagues away Along its solitary shore Of craggy rock and sandy bay, No sound but ocean´s roar, Save where the bold, wild sea-bird makes her home, Her shrill cry coming through the sparkling foam. - R. H. Dana. The scenes of our story lie along the Western shore of Maryland, near the mouth of the Potomac River, and among the islets of the Chesapeake Bay. Nothing can be more beautiful, grand, and inspiring than the scenery of this region. The great Potomac, a mighty and invincible monarch of rivers, even from her first stormy conquest, in which she rent apart the everlasting mountains, and forced herself a passage to the sea - widens and broadens her channel, extending the area of her empire continually as she goes on her irresistible way in a vast, calm, majestic flow of waters to the ocean. At the mouth of the river on the north, or Maryland side, is Point Lookout; on the south, or Virginia side, is Smith´s Point, with an expanse of water twenty miles in width between them.
