Early 19th Century New York Oyster Trade Reflections
A Baltimore style miscellany recounts the oyster trade in New York City with figures on vessels and workers in the South Bay East River and around Staten Island. It notes rising prices and a large labor force of thousands across processing and distribution. The piece includes anecdotes about German influence, a Baltic barber shop mix up, and various moralized or humorous tales.
