Under an Adirondack Influence: The Life of A.l. Byron-curtiss, 1871-1959 - Hardcover
Reseña del editor
A. L. Byron-Curtiss first traveled to the Adirondacks in 1892 at age 21 to take over a wilderness mission that changed his life. During the next sixty years, spanning two world wars, prohibition and the Great Depression, he wrote about everything important to him: his family, his outdoor adventures, the colorful North Country characters he befriended and the tall tales they shared around a campfire. He wrote about nature, history, folklore, conservation, philosophy, world affairs, his greatest joys and most unnerving tragedies. He brought passion and humor to all his endeavors, as a father, a fisherman, a preacher, a drinker, a social activist and a scofflaw. Through all his life, the unofficial "Bishop of North Lake" displayed an unshakable faith, uncommon wisdom, and an everlasting love for life in the Adirondacks.
