Review & Description
The lively history of the early Algonquin civilization that flourished in what is now New York.
When Giovanni da Verrazzano sailed into New York Harbor in 1524, he climbed a hill and beheld "campfires as plentiful as stars, as far as the eye can see." Native New Yorkers reveals the city beneath The City, telling the fascinating story of the ancient Algonquin culture that maintained a thriving civilization in the greater New York area that is now a bustling metropolis.
Native New Yorkers includes 3 original maps of Native New York, a complete timeline of New York's Algonquin history, a glossary of Algonquin words, and a transcript of Verrazzano's letter to King Francis I of France describing the people and places he found upon his arrival in New York. Read more
