Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Historical Sketch of Mount Holyoke Seminary, Founded at South Hadley, Mass, in 1837 This institution is situated in the village of South Hadley, Hampshire County, Massachusetts. It is nearly two miles east of the Connecticut river, and thirteen miles north of Springfield. Northampton lies about five miles to the north-west, Amherst ten miles north. Mount Holyoke, from which the institution takes its name is four miles north of the village. The scenery of the region is noted for its quiet and varied beauty. The broad, tranquil river, after lingering a little in the lovely Northampton meadows, sweeps southward past Mount Holyoke on the left, and then for miles along the base of Mount Tom on the right. To the eastward, the valley here spreads into broad and fertile fields, dotted with graceful elms. Everywhere one finds something in the landscape to admire. The village is a quiet and attractive one, and had the preference over other places in the region, whose advantages had caused them to be proposed as the seat of the institution. The Seminary stands on the eastern side of the main street, some forty rods south of the church. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
