Adirondack Stories of the Black River Country – Paperback
By William J. O’Hern
Stories and legends from the North Lake area of the Adirondacks provide a rare glimpse into a long-ago era. Remarkably entertaining, rich in detail, and an interesting return to the Adirondacks of a century ago. The Reverend A. L. Byron-Curtiss’ arrived by buckboard in Forestport, NY in 1892 and began recording his encounters for the hardscrabble farmers, hunters, guides, and lumbermen who eked out a living in an unforgiving but majestic environment. His observations are filled with compassion and home-spun humor, painting a vibrant turn-of-the-century portrait of this little-chronicled region.
Paperback, 6″ x 9″, 244 pages.
