Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Chronicles of Tarrytown and Sleepy Hollow Most books of places are prefaced with the statement of a hope that they may "foster local pride." This little work is not offered with any such futile anticipation. The slow ox, Time, that Sydney Lanier pictures as browsing through his clover-field of poets and great men and names the "course-o´-things," sweeps away old landmarks like worthless rubbish. It is no less destructive in ´97 than it was in ´37 or at any other date, though not a few have been the heroic efforts to check its progress. Houses wherein generations have lived and died, haunted with memories, disappear each year to make place for bright new bricks and mortar - that is to say, for the planting of the seeds which, in time, will yield a crop of new chronicles.
