    FINAL REPORT Ethnographic Overview and Assessment Fire Island National Seashore Setha M. Low, Ph.D. Principal Investigator Dana H. Taplin, Ph.D. Project Director and Author Andrew Kirby, Ph.D. and Mara Heppen, B.S., Field Researchers Public Space Research Group of the Center for Human Environments Graduate Center, City University of New York 365 Fifth Avenue, New York City 10016 Pursuant to Cooperative Agreement H4520030016 And Amendment 1 (Scope of Work) Between the National Park Service, Northeast Region, and the Graduate School and University Center, City University of New York July 2006 SUMMARY OF FINDINGS Fire Island National Seashore (FIIS) commissioned this Ethnographic Overview and Assessment pursuant to Park Service policies that require parks to consult with groups and communities having continuing ecological, cultural, and historical relationships with park resources. The research will have immediate and specific application in the development of a General Management Plan for the park. The Ethnographic Overview and Assessment reviews the state of knowledge and documentation on the groups and communities thought to have important and continuing cultural relationships with the Seashore’s natural and cultural resources. Part history and part ethnography, the EO&A traces the history of each of these groups and communities with regard to their use of and attachments to the lands, waters, fish and wildlife, and other resources within the FIIS boundary. Information in this EO&A will help managers evaluate requests for access to resources, as well as identify park resources that may require special treatment or protection. Research Phases and Methods The six months from October 2003 through early April 2004 constituted the ethnohistorical research phase of the project.

    HOW MY LIGHT IS SPENT The Memoirs of Dewitt Stetten, Jr. Spring 1983 ON HIS BLINDNESS When I consider how my light is spent Ere half my days in this dark world and wide, And that one talent which is death to hide Lodged with me useless, though my soul more bent To serve therewith my Maker, and present My true account, lest He returning chide, "Doth God exact day-labor, light denied?" I fondly ask. But Patience, to prevent That murmur, soon replies, "God doth not need Either man's work or his own gifts. Who best Bear his mild yoke, they serve him best. His state Is kingly: thousands at his bidding speed, And post o'er land and ocean without rest; They also serve who only stand and wait." Sonnet XVI John Milton 1608-1674 P R E F A C E Apologia These are the recollections of a blind man. Not that I was always blind. I have worn spectacles since four years of age to correct a severe familial myopia. The correction was good and the myopia had the advantage of giving me microscopic vision when I took my glasses off and held an object about two inches from my face. Undoubtedly, my chronic dependence upon having spectacles contributed to my distaste for games such as baseball and tennis and to my insecurity in such activities as swimming. It was in the late 1960s, while residing in New Brunswick, New Jersey, that I first noted the visual anomaly that led fairly promptly to the diagnosis of macular degeneration.
