About this audiobook
Imagine traveling a river through time. You float by Native Americans trapping beaver and pass boats full of European settlers. You spy waterwheels turning and factories buzzing with activity. Finally modern cities crowd the banks. Dive into this book, and learn about the changing lives of people in the Hudson River Valley.
