| Summary: | run n From Battle Harbor to Port Manvers, more than five hundred miles, almost all the coast is masked by islands which extend out from five to twenty miles in something like an archipelago. The "runs" and passages are "drowned valleys," formerly with running streams in them, for the coast was once higher than now. Generally the passages are deep, the water line being well up on the slopes of the former hillsides. These slopes of the present shores can generally be trusted to continue on down some way without change . . . PRINTED ITEM G. M. Story AUG 1970 JH AUG 1970 Used I and Sup Used I 2 Not used |
