Chronicles of the Hudson
Three Centuries of Travel & Adventure
Roland Van Zandt
Introduction by John Cronin, Riverkeeper

Captures 300 years of travelers' tales of adventure on America's own Hudson River from its Adirondack headwaters at Lake Tear of the Clouds to New York City's bustling harbor. In coming to chart the River's path, the men and women chronicled here became participants in its illustrious history, including explorers and travelers from Robert Juet, navigator aboard Henry Hudson's pioneering Half Moon, to General Lafayette and Henry James.

"Reminds us forcibly of how much of the Hudson we have lost, and how urgent it is that we preserve the … beauty that remains along its banks.".-- The New York Times
