Summers on the Saranac’s by Maiyland C. DeSormo

In the book “Summer’s on the Saranac’s,” the authors chronicle some of the rich history and splendid past of Saranac Chain of Lakes region in New York’s central Adirondacks.  In the early 1800’s once relatively unknown because of its remoteness, the lure of the Adirondacks began attracting sportsmen, lumbermen, land speculators, and health seekers.  This book includes chapters on the hotels, and the hoteliers, the guide boats and guide boat builders, the rich and the not so rich, the hermits, healers, natives, architects, authors, and the photographers.  This richly illustrated volume contains over two hundred and fifty vintage photographs.
