Summary: The Hudson River Guidebook by Arthur G Adams
Review: True to its name, the Hudson River Guidebook literally
guides the reader through the Hudson Region . Water arises from
springs in the Adirondacks. The Opalescent River provides one
of the highest if not the highest tributary vantagepoints in the
region. The book shows the majesty of the Great Falls of the
Passaic River at Patterson and Fort Lafayette. The area below
the Highlands is picturesque. The work displays the Hasbrouck House which was once the sight of George Washington's famous headquarters. There is a shot of the Vanderbilt Mansion.
The beautiful falls of the Mohawk at Cohoes provide a
spectacular arial shot. All-in-all the work is informative
and picturesque. This is a worthy purchase for a wide
constituency of readers. i.e. NYS historians, students,
geography buffs, environmentalists and a host of other
relevant constituencies of the Hudson region.
This book would be a goldmine for any student doing a
class project in geography, earth science, the history of NYS
or any number of assignments too numerous to list here.
