Download or read book Tidewater by Steamboat written by David C. Holly and published by . This book was released on 1991 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The name Weems, and the Weems line," writes David C. Holly, "symbolized nearly the entire epoch of the steamboat on the Chesapeake." The Weems line began in Baltimore in 1819, as steamboats first appeared on the Chesapeake and its rivers. It was sold to the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1905, at the height of the steamboat's "Golden Age," though its boats continued to serve the Bay until the 1930s. Illustrated with maps, drawings, and rare photographs, Tidewater by Steamboat is the vivid portrait of life on the Patuxent, the Potomac, and the Rappahannock, where Weems boats sailed and the course of the American republic was set.

Download or read book Tidewater Triumph written by Geoffrey Marsh Footner and published by Cornell Maritime Press/Tidewater Publishers. This book was released on 1998 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fast, nimble pilot schooners of the Chesapeake Bay--employed not only for piloting but also for cargo carrying--began to build their legend in the eighteenth century, becoming blockade runners during the American Revolution, privateering vessels during the War of 1812, and armed dispatch and policing vessels for European navies. They were also a favored type for the activities of pirates, smugglers, and slavers. Variations of the final "clipper" model of the Baltimore schooner continued the vessels' reputation through the nineteenth century as both great yachts and humble "pungy" schooners carrying produce. Geoffrey Footner documents the family tree of this distinctive American schooner in both text and illustration, including hull lines from sources around the world.

Download or read book Tidewater Spirit: Cultural Landmarks, Monuments & History of Eastern Virginia written by Bryan Hatchett and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-31 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tidewater lies east of the fall line of the Virginia rivers that flow into the Chesapeake--a definition that dates back to colonial times. Much of what we know of seventeenth- and eighteenth-century Tidewater comes from the writings of Captain John Smith, William Byrd II and Thomas Jefferson. The Virginia of Smith, Byrd and Jefferson remains, in part, our Virginia. Geography and place names are largely the same. Their accounts of what they saw, where they traveled, what's in bloom and what's ready for harvest will sound very familiar. Read their words, paired with photographer and author Bryan Hatchett's stunning photographs of Tidewater landscapes and landmarks, and experience the continuity as well as the change that time has brought to this very special place.
