The Story of the Hudson River

The Hudson River is more than water on a map. It has carried explorers, soldiers, artists, engineers, factory towns, and environmental hopes through centuries of American life. River of Dreams follows the river's history from its natural power and early communities to exploration, the Revolutionary War, the Erie Canal, industry, art, and conservation. Hudson Talbott presents a wide sweep of history in an accessible picture-book format, using maps, timelines, and illustrations to connect one river to many parts of the nation's story. Readers who like history, geography, nature, and environmental questions will see how a single river can shape culture, conflict, transportation, and the way people imagine home.
