Aprašymas

The Waters of Norfolk, Virginia, the third book of Berent's Encyclopedia of Norfolk Virginia History-Geography, covers in exhaustive detail the history-geography of the bodies of water that surround and run through Norfolk, Virginia, one of America's most historic and important cities. This exhaustively-detailed book encompasses Hampton Roads, Elizabeth River, and Southern Chesapeake Bay, and the structures and activities associated with those waters -- including the creeks, canals, waterworks, springs, wells, lighthouses, quarantine, dredging, telegraph cable, ferries, tunnels, fishing, oystering, et cetera -- all told through contemporary historic maps, photographs, articles, deeds, advertisements, books, and other documents that make this a magnificent resource and reference for a great city's watery character and heritage.
