Big Moose Lake in the Adirondacks: The Story of the Lake, the Land, and the People

This title transports the reader back in time to the days when steamboats, buckboards, and gas lighting were common. This memoir delivers tales of one-room schools, of ice harvesting, of women who managed households accessible only by boat and of families struck by deaths from tuberculosis or from drowning.
