About Me

My photo
I'm a reader who enjoys posting comments and recommendations about the books I read. You will not find a synopsis with my recommendations because you can just click on the book title for a link to www.goodreads.com for a synopsis and reviews by other readers. I prefer the 3 Reason format: the reason I chose to read it; the reason I liked (or disliked) the book; and the reason I recommend it.

The Ancient Adirondacks (Time-Life American Wilderness Series)The Ancient Adirondacks by Lincoln Kinnear Barnett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The Ancient Adironacks has been in my home library since we subscribed to this Time-Life American Wilderness series.
I enjoyed the pictures before, and I had not read the text written by Lincoln Barnett. I enjoyed his descriptions of hiking trails through mountainsides and gorges, and the white-water rafting trips. Reading the descriptions may be better than the actual experience because the reader does not have to contend with black flies and deer flies.
I recommend this book to arm-chair travelers. The information is likely to be out of date for current travelers.
