Ralph Nading Hill (September 19, 1917 – December 10, 1987) was a Vermont writer and preservationist. Hill's books include ''The Winooski, Heartway of Vermont'' (1949), which viewed Vermont through the lens of the river known to the Algonquians as "The Onion River" and ''Sidewheeler Saga,'' a book about the steamboat ''Ticonderoga'', the last sidewheel steamer on Lake Champlain. Hill worked on the boat, which traveled between Vermont and New York across Lake Champlain, for three years.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Inventory of the Ralph Nading Hill Collection )〕 Hill later became well known in Vermont for preserving the ''Ticonderoga'', at first trying to keep the boat running as an excursion steamer, and then persuading Electra Havemeyer Webb to buy the ship for her Shelburne Museum . The ship was transported overland to the museum in 1955.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Shelburne Museum: SS Ticonderoga )〕 ==Bibliography== *Lake Champlain, key to Liberty *The Doctors who Conquered Yellow Fever *Yankee Kingdom: Vermont and New Hampshire *Contrary Country: A Chronicle of Vermont *Vermont; A Special World *Vermont Album: A Collection of Early Vermont Photographs *The Winooski: Heartway of Vermont *The Voyages of Brian Seaworthy *Robert Fulton and the Steamboat *Lake Champlain Ferryboats: A Short History of Lake Champlain and the Story of Over 200 Years of Lake Champlain Ferryboats 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ralph Nading Hill」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
