	Connecticut River - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Connecticut River is the largest river in New England, flowing south from the Connecticut Lakes in northern New Hampshire, along the border between New Hampshire and Vermont, through Western Massachusetts and central Connecticut into Long Island Sound at Fenwick, Connecticut.
		The river carries a heavy amount of silt, especially during the spring snow melt, from as far north as Quebec.
		The difficulty of navigation on the river is the primary reason that it is one of the few large rivers in the region without a major city near its mouth.

	Heritage of the James River
		This river was the first American river to be named, the first to be seen through the lenses of the written word, words that in turn would help determine, and limit, the ways it would come to be seen.
		I believe it is time that we name the river in new ways, ways that acknowledge it as a living part of nature, even as we are also living parts of nature through whom rivers flow as much as they do between their banks of soil.
		First, of course, the river was put in words we do not know, words of the Indians who lived, fished and traveled on this river before the Greeks came up with their ideas about civilization.

		Compared with other famous rivers — with the Missouri or the Mississippi, the Hudson is a small river.
		It is a river celebrated for its history, its commerce, but most of all, its beauty.

	The Territory of the Taku River Tlingit

		The goal of the Taku River Wildlife Conservation Project is to achieve long-term conservation of the wildlife and preservation for the wilderness character of the Taku River watershed, and to promote wildlife conservation throughout the entirety of the territory of the Taku River Tlingit First Nation.

	The St. Johns River - Florid'a First Highway. Florida History & the Arts Magazine - Summer 2003 @ Florida OCHP
		The St. Johns is also known as a "flwater" river, because of its dark color, caused by the tannin released by cypress trees and other vegetation.
		The St. Johns is the only Florida river to receive this prestigious national recognition and one of only 14 rivers so recognized throughout the country.
		Thus was born the St. Johns American Heritage River Initiative (AHRI), a coalition of community leaders, agencies and citizens representing the 10 counties along the river corridor that work together to protect the natural landscape and enrich its cultural and historical qualities by providing educational and recreational programs throughout the region.

		Part One of America's First River introduces the seminal role the Hudson played in the development of America’s economy, culture, literature, art, and ideology.
		But just as the river was coming back to life in the 1970s, a new threat was recognized: PCBs, an industrial chemical that had been dumped into the Hudson for decades.
		But environmentalists argue that the key to a restored river is for General Electric to dredge the Hudson to remove the PCBs, something the company has strenuously resisted.

	STEAMBOATING ON THE MISSOURI RIVER (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Fulton is often credited with inventing the steamboat, but it is more accurate to say that he made one of the first successful demonstrations of a commercially feasible steamboat when he launched the Clermont (Fulton actually referred to it as simply The Steamboat or The North River Steamboat) on the lower Hudson River in 1807.
		The first boats to actually reach Fort Benton, which was, for all practical purposes the head of navigation on the Missouri, were the Chippewa and the Key West in 1860.
		The preference for side-wheelers continued up to about 1850, but after that date, especially on the Missouri River, the preference switched to stern-wheelers, and it is a tradition in the Kinney family of Howard County that Capt.
