Kessinger Publishing

Only the most salient episodes of Adirondack history have been chosen for these pages, and their slant of emphasis is frankly toward the early days and the pioneers. The narrative portion of the work aims to be broadly comprehensive without attempting to be minutely exhaastive, and to this end a policy of omission and condensation has been carefully pursued. The previously recorded history of the Adirondacks lies scattered in the most meager parts of old county histories, in a score of early books of travel, in a few guide-books and pamphlets, in many detached magazine and newspaper articles, and in a long series of rather dry and often technical State Reports. The most notable attempt to tell a consecutive and comprehensive story of the region, was made by Nathaniel Bartlett Sylvester in his Historical Sketches of Northern New York, published in 1877. This is a volume of great research and merit, but, as the title indicates, it includes much outside of the more limited scope of the present work, and, owing to its early date of completion, omits much which has since ripened for inclusion here. All of the above-mentioned material has, of course, been sifted and sorted for basic use in the following pages. To it has been added some new gleanings from hitherto untapped sources. Part of these rest on oral tradition only; and, as memory often plays tricks both with the teller and the told, it is not improbable that errors of fact will be discovered. Wherever valid corrections can be suggested, they will be most gratefully accepted. I am indebted to many erstwhile strangers, as well as oldtime friends, for valuable data and painstaking help.(Typographical errors above are due to OCR software and don't occur in the book.)About the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten

Alfred Donaldson's History of the Adirondacks is recognized as the major work about the entire region and as such remains unsurpassed. As the author pointed out in the preface, "The previously recorded history of the Adirondacks lies scattered in the most meager parts of old country histories, in a score of early books on travel, in a few guide-books and pamphlets, in many detached magazine and newspaper articles, and in a long series of rather dry and often technical State Reports." His task was, therefore, to sift and sort this material and to bring it together into a comprehensive and cohesive history, while adding much information from "untapped sources" and a copious index.
