Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book traces the history of Durham Township, nestled in the far northeast corner of Bucks County, Pennsylvania â" a region that differs greatly from the surrounding countryside in terms of its resources, settlement, and population characteristics. It's a region of great natural beauty, with Durham Creek flowing through the valley that bears its name, and high hills rising on either side, the slopes of which have proven suitable for cultivation almost to their summits. The author notes that the elevated plateau offers a scene that rivals the most famous landscapes in the country, and lauds the protective convolutions of South Mountain, which form the northeastern horizon, while spurs of every variety of contour, elevation, and direction radiate from the primary range. The Delaware River enters the picture to the north, gradually widening as it bends into a bold semicircular curve, finally entering the Narrows under the shadows of overhanging and perpetual foliage. It's a landscape rich in history too, with evidence of prehistoric man in various rock formations that line the Delaware. The author cites rounded stones used as hammers, sharply pointed ones as arrow or spear points, and caves as potential prehistoric habitations, speculating that loose fragments of its rocky sides may have been used as implements and weapons in the early stages of human civilization, which progressed through successive periods of the Stone, Bronze, and Iron Ages, as evidenced by the discoveries made by archaeologists and recorded in the annals of historians. This book is a treasure trove of local lore, and the author has skillfully woven together geology, landscape description, natural history, archaeology, and the human condition to craft a history of Durham Township that will appeal to a wide readership, from scholars to general readers and everyone in between. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781334673931_0
