History and Legends of the Northern Adirondacks, Vol. 1, by John Sasson – Ever since he began hiking in the mountains of the Adirondacks, John Sasso has been intrigued with the artifacts he would stumble upon, such as iron bolts from old land surveys, remants of long gone logging camps, myterious woods roads, and stone foundations.

The questions those finds proviked: “What was here?” “What was their purpise?” and “Where did the name come from?” led him to research and write about the often-surprising and always entertaining answers he’s found over the years.

The first volume in a planned series, this book shares the facinating stories behind the mountains of the Northern Adirondacks and, it is hoped, will lead to deeper appreciation of this unique and remarkable area.
