About the Book
A reprint of an 1854 article on the Adirondack region’s geography, particularly Mount Marcy, Indian Pass, and Raquette Lake, written by Farrand Northrup Benedict, with a preface by Sandra Weber.
A welcome addition to the rich body of Adirondack literature. With physical descriptions of the region’s lakes, mountains, and valleys and their minerals, forests, and game, this essay has been hailed as “the first published attempt at a brief but comprehensive review of the Adirondack territory for the general public.”
Originally published in Putnam’s Monthly in September 1854.
