Sinopsis

Excerpt from The Story of a Pass in the Aidrondacks

This book is a sort of compound of the author's personal experiences and observations, together with stories and yarns picked up by the way. In weaving them into a book I have endeavored to make the completed tale instructive as well as inspiring to the youthful reader, while the mild flights of philosophy indulged in here and there, have been with the object of possibly leaving a good taste in the mouth of the more mature and critical reader who might scoff at the story as a Whole.

To paint anew the flowery sylvan scenes."

The Adirondack wilderness is a very different one from the days when William H. H. Murray wrote of it. Then the mountains were visited by a few hundreds at the most. Now the annual visitors are many thousands in number.
