Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Mankind has always developed symbols that relate to location, nationality, family, and more. Over the centuries in Europe a set of rules developed around heraldry, primarily through rank and privilege, but especially with monarchies and nobility. What happened when people came to America, and there was no monarchy, and essentially no central authority for municipal symbols What happened is what this book is about. The Hudson River Valley of New York State has a unique Dutch heritage expressed in many ways, including through the official seals and logos of counties, towns, cities, and villages. These seals are found on the official government letterheads and web sites, on the police and fire vehicles, on the walls of municipal chambers, and even in works of art. As residents, we often get to choose them through our Board of Supervisors or Town Councils. Therefore, in this area of New York, you will find windmills, illustrations of a 17th century ship, and unique Dutch names-Rensselaer, Watervliet, Stuyvesant, Yonkers, Kinderhook, etc. 400 years after Henry Hudson and 345 years after the Dutch formally relinquished claim to New York, the Dutch influence is both subtle and pervasive. This influence is a part of our daily lives. In 2009 sigillographer Marvin Bubie first collected the images of these Dutch-influenced seals and related the history behind their design. This second edition is revised and expanded and includes 77 illustrations.…

Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The Erie Canal made New York into The Empire State and transformed the shape of a young nation. Many towns and villages along the Erie Canal might never have existed if it weren't for what many called the "Eighth Wonder of the World."Every picture tells a story and so do many of the official seals of the municipalities along the Erie Canal. Their symbolism tells the story of the canal itself from the perspective of those who were directly affected. Generations of people derived their livelihood from the canal, cities and towns prospered and grew, and their seals reveal the source of their prosperity. In them we find canal boats being towed by mules, we see great aqueducts crossing over rivers and swamps, we see canal locks and the numerous businesses that flourished alongside the canal. In their seals we also find modern pleasure craft symbolizing the recreational aspect of the canal today.2017 marks the 200th anniversary of the first shovelful of dirt dug for the Erie Canal. First published in 2010, this Bicentennial Edition has been revised and expanded to include information about other canals in New York State, notable men who built the canal, inventions that came from the construction of the canal, works of art depicting the Canal Era, and Erie Canal museums in New York State. A larger appendix shows the seals and tells the story of canals built in other U.S. states as a result of "Erie Canal envy.'.…
