Izaak Walton
“Hops, and Turkies, Carps and Beer
Came into England all in a year.”
Izaak Walton, The Compleat Angler, or the Contemplative Man's Recreation

“The growth and improvement of New York was a wonderful example of the vast and irrevocable benefits reaped by the English empire during the four years when England was at peace and her rivals were at war. Yet in every other English colony, from the Carolinas northward, the immeasurable disasters of the great Algonquin wars set colonial development back by more than thirty years. New York alone was spared. New York alone had Andros.”
Stephen Saunders Webb, 1676: The End of American Independence
