Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Wallkill Valley in Art and Story Decades pass in rapid succession and the panorama of life yields little of its detail if even its outline, to the generation that follows. It is but a brief interval since the aboriginal denizens of the forests held unrestricted sway over the mountain fastnesses and intervening valleys of Southeastern New York. It has been said that, in America, our local history has not yet received its full development. We have been careless of our traditions, monuments and relics, which, "if of a different sort from those of Europe, are no less interesting and important to preserve." The following pages are too few to make any pretence to being a history of the Wallkill Valley. They may serve, however, to record much that might otherwise pass with the forgotten and unknown, and hence are merely offered as a contribution to the growth of local song and story "to cling like green vines about the broken fragments of the past." The response to former publications of this character has met with such complimentary reception at home and abroad that we are encouraged to add the present volume to those of former years. I desire to acknowledge the invaluable co-operation and assistance of the many individuals who have contributed in many ways to give this souvenir much of whatever value it may have.
