Eastern Area

Famous quotes containing the words eastern and/or area:

    See how from far upon the eastern road
    The star-led Wizards haste with odours sweet . . .
    John Milton (1608–1674)

    During the Civil War the area became a refuge for service- dodging Texans, and gangs of bushwhackers, as they were called, hid in its fastnesses. Conscript details of the Confederate Army hunted the fugitives and occasional skirmishes resulted.
