This book is unquestionably the biggest, most comprehensive and most readable books of them all. It covers the northern Adirondacks, especially Franklin County, like the proverbial tent and includes historical and funfare for the entire family. Dealing with such fascinating topics as the early roads, railroads, leantos, hotels, guides, bootlegging, and river-driving days, it presents a wide-scope overview of much that made this alluring region the vacation mecca it has been since the 1850s.Acquisition
