Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a meticulous exploration of the Battery Weed headland landscape on Staten Island, an area that the author, a historian, presents as a living palimpsest marked by the passage of time and the evolution of coastal defense technologies. The author charts the evolution of the landscape from Native American settlement through the present-day. In its pages, we witness the transformation of a strategic bluff into a complex web of fortifications, from the earthworks of the 18th century to the formidable granite fortress of the 1860s. Significant consideration is given to the way the landscape was shaped by technological advancements in artillery, mining defense, and submarine warfare. The result of years of research in archives and libraries, reports, plans, and maps, this book is a valuable and fascinating resource for anyone interested in military history, landscape studies, or the evolution of coastal fortifications.
