Description

Purchased from the Manhattan tribe of the Wappinger

Confederacy by the Dutch, Governors Island has long been

the secret island in New York's harbor. Although this pristine island has appeared on maps since the 1600s, little regarding it has been known by the populace. It has been the site of horse races, inventions, college classes, hangings, military musters, and unidentified bones. All of these are part of the unique history explored within the pages of Governors Island.
