The history of Denning's Point--a 64-acre peninsula reaching into the mid-Hudson River from the port city of Beacon, New York--is a microcosm of the history of the Hudson River Valley. Now a state park and home to The Beacon Institute for Rivers & Estuaries, Denning's Point, as this lavishly illustrated book shows, went through many incarnations from ancient Native American campsite to colonial homestead, one of Alexander Hamilton's Revolutionary War residences, an early 19th century great estate, a colossal brickyard, and now a center for ecological research and education.
