SynopsisHenry Hudson explored the river that now bears his name in 1609. The arrival of the steamboat 200 years later, and the opening of the Erie Canal in 1825, made the Hudson one of America's busiest rivers. From 1826 until the middle of the 20th century, more than a dozen lighthouses guided ships past its shallows and islands. 'Hudson River Lighthouses & History' is an illustrated tour of these lights and of the river they marked--its cities, industries, Revolutionary War battlefields, bridges, and parks.
