Quotes

  • The is one of the richest agricultural regions of the earth, and its fertility can be compared only with that of the valleys of the Nile and the Ganges and other great rivers. It owes its fertility to the very same causes as those which have enabled the Nile valley to support a dense human population for untold ages without any loss of fertility; but it is adapted for producing only one crop, the oyster.
