Harbors

Description
All but the south and north ends of Manhattan Island is shown. Astoria, the Bronx, and the inner-end of Long Island Sound, are visible in the distance. The coast lines have been made by subsidence of the land, and the drowning of stream valleys. Ships from Boston, and points north, usually enter New York harbor through the "sound".
