Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Meanderings Among a Thousand Islands: Or an Account of Capt. Visger´s Daily Trip on the River St. Lawrence It is this portion, perhaps more particularly the central and lower part of it, where the Islands are more closely disposed, which has come to be designated as the "Thousand Islands of the St. Lawrence," and which has long been known and celebrated by poets and novelists for its singular and natural beauty. The wild forest, intermingled with partial cultivation upon its Islands and shores; the many narrow and tortuous channels, land-locked bays, with secluded and sheltered nooks among its several clusters, alternated with extensive stretches of open water, many of which themselves might well be called lakes, all clear and pure as the most transparent crystal, present scenes of enchantment, whose beauties are ever changing and never wearying to the eye of the beholder.
