Açıklama
"Historic towns of the middle states" by Lyman P. Powell is a historical collection written in the late 19th century. It gathers illustrated, essay-length portraits of notable towns in the Middle States—especially in New York, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware—linking local scenes and architecture with colonial, revolutionary, and civic history as told by resident scholars and writers.
The opening of the book sets its scope and method: a preface frames this as the second volume in a series, retaining the plan of commissioning native or long‑resident authors and acknowledging collaborators, followed by a contents list that maps a tour from Albany to Pittsburgh. Albert Shaw’s introduction argues that the Middle States, born of Dutch, Swedish, English Quaker, German, and Scotch‑Irish roots, served as a mediating, cosmopolitan bridge between New England and the South, with the Hudson–Mohawk corridors, immigration through New York, and cities like Albany, Buffalo, and Pittsburgh shapi
