The
Adirondacks : A History of America's First Wilderness by Paul
SchneiderIn 1858, Ralph Waldo Emerson went camping at Follensby Pond. Wild enough to talk about a re-introduction of wolves into the area, the Adirondacks have served as a natural playground for philosophers, conservationists, bohemians and hippies, and back-to nature types for over 140 years. Interesting history created by interesting characters. Available in hardcover and paperback. |

Gotham:
A History of New York City to 1898 by Edwin G. Burrows, Mike WallaceYes, that's 1898! And no, not 60 minutes. This book traces history from the time of the Lenape Indians to the reign of Police Commissioner Teddy Roosevelt. This is a great chronicle and thoroughly fascinating history of what was to become the first Capital city of the United States. Even if you're a New Yorker, you'll find stuff you didn't know in this book! |
