Book Description
State-of-the-art hiking guide, complete with newly drawn maps and GPS coordinates, to America's first recreational mountain trails. These trails surrounded the Catskill Mountain House (est. 1824) on the northeastern escarpment of the Catskill Mountains and inspired America's Romantic-era painters & writers, including William Cullen Bryant, James Fenimore Cooper, Thomas Cole, Frederic Church and the other artists of the Hudson River School. Includes 19th-century maps and rare period photos, drawings and descriptions.
