Book Description
Excerpt from The Physical Geography of Worcester Massachusetts Standing at the summit of Vernon Street hill and looking westward and northwestward, we overlook the deep valley bordered on one side by Millbury Street and on the other by Southbridge Street, and see beyond the higher land, along the crest of which is Main Street from May Street to New Worcester hill; and, still more distant, rising from this, a rolling, billowy area looking as if the surface of the earth had been raised into great dome-like waves, and there transfixed; and finally we see, in the distant background, the highlands of Leicester and Paxton, along the summit of which we trace the horizon with its upward curve showing us the outline of Asnebumskit. Or, again, if we stand on an open spot on Belmont Street hill and look westward, we overlook the valley beneath followed by the Boston Maine and Fitchburg Railroads, and see beyond the same billowy landscape with the Paxton and Leicester highlands for their background. As we look at this beautiful and varied landscape, confusing though it may seem, we may justly ask what these highlands, these valleys, these domelike hills, these plains, these meadows, these streams, these ponds and lakes mean. What is the story they tell us? For in nature there is no chaos, everything has its meaning, if only we have eyes to see, and the perception to understand the revelation. In studying the physical geography of Worcester, let us begin near the northeast corner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
