The third and final part of the book is a collection of essays on various topics related to the river, including fishing, boating, and the natural beauty of the area.Throughout the book, Van Dyke reflects on his childhood memories of the river and his family, and how they have shaped his life and his appreciation for nature. He also discusses the changes he has seen in the river and the surrounding area over the years, including the impact of industrialization and urbanization.Overall, The Raritan: Notes On A River And A Family is a nostalgic and informative memoir that provides a unique perspective on the history and natural beauty of the Raritan River and its surrounding area.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
