Guides of the Adirondacks: A History, a Short Season, Hard Work, Low Pay

by Charles Brumley

Book Overview

No profession in the last two centuries has had a more romanticized image than the Adirondack guide. Much of the history and folklore of the Adirondacks has the guide as the central character. Guides were instrumental in the opening of the wilderness to the general public. Stories, interviews and a list of guides fill this volume.
