4.0 out of 5 stars
A fine local history,
By Geoffrey Megargee (Arlington, VA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Esopus (NY) (Images of America) (Paperback)
Karl and Sue Wick have combined a fascinating collection of original photographs with clear, accurate explanatory text to provide a rich set of insights into the people and places of Esopus. The book lets us see what life has been like for four centuries and more in a land of farmers, ice cutters, bootleggers, philosophers, politicians, and ordinary folk of every other description. Along the way it illuminates the varied contributions of Native Americans, Dutch, English, Germans, African Americans and all the other peoples who have created the story of Esopus. The style is lively and engaging, the information enlightening. This book is both a fun read and a valuable resource for anyone with an interest in the past.
