This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ... rocky spires and deep ravines of Lafayette, Lincoln and Liberty almost equals that of the Flume House and is only surpassed by the view from a mountain top. It is a new house, and for airy spacious rooms, newly furnished, for abundant and well-cooked food and for attentive hosts, it has no superior among the moderate priced hotels. It merits and will receive, when known, an increasing and enthusiastic number of guests. It is within easy walking reach of the wonders of the Franconia Notch, the Flume (two miles), Pool (one and one-half miles), Basin (two and one-half miles), Profile (six miles), etc. Its only drawback is its distance from the depot, which should recommend it to every true lover of nature or any one seeking a quiet home for his summer rest. Paths lead from the hotel to Mt. Pemigewasset and Georgianna Falls. It is especially recommended as a desirable hotel for families who spend an entire summer. Carriages from the Mt. Liberty House meet every train at North Woodstock and the drive to the hotel is over four miles of the world-famous stage ride to the Profile House. ADAM'S SPRING Two miles north of North Woodstock and a few rods beyond Harvard or Bog Brook, the road crosses a small stream flowing into a small granite basin on the right, east of the road. A sign reads, " C. H. Adam's Spring." A thirsty traveller should take a cup of this cold, white water. BOG, OR HARVARD BROOK Crosses the highway one-quarter mile north of Tuttle's. It is a picturesque brook worth following up and down from the bridge. It flows down from Bog Pond and Georgianna Falls, three to four miles away. TUTTLE'S, An old tavern in the days when stages ran from Plymouth to the Notch, is one and one-half miles from North Woodstock, in Lincoln on the left...

Thirty years after its initial publication, this beloved classic is back in print. Superbly researched and written, Forest and Crag is the definitive history of our love affair with the mountains of the Northeastern United States, from the Catskills and the Adirondacks of New York to the Green Mountains of Vermont, the White Mountains of New Hampshire, and the mountains of Maine. It's all here in one comprehensive volume: the struggles of early pioneers in America's first frontier wilderness; the first ascent of every major peak in the Northeast; the building of the trail networks, including the Appalachian Trail; the golden era of the summit resort hotels; and the unforeseen consequences of the backpacking boom of the 1970s and 80s. Laura and Guy Waterman spent a decade researching and writing Forest and Crag, and in it they draw together widely scattered sources. What emerges is a compelling story of our ever-evolving relationship with the mountains and wilderness, a story that will fascinate historians, outdoor enthusiasts, and armchair adventurers alike.
