Excerpt from The Hudson River From Ocean to Source: Historical Legendary Picturesque From the nature of this book it has not been pos sible to make the historical narrative continuous, but in treating of separate localities the main events con nected with each have been grouped, the method of arrangement being topical rather than consecutive. A reference to the index may in many cases dispel an impression that some important event or person has been neglected or forgotten because its place in a chronological sequence has of necessity been disre garded. In commencing the story with the arrival of Henry Hudson, the claims of Verrazani and other early navi gators have been ignored, not because history disowns them, but for the reason that the record of the river, so far as it is clearly written, commences with the H alf M 0074 and the first Dutch settlers.
