THE ADIRONDACK GUIDEBOAT BOOK
Written by journalist Kenneth Durant, whose love of the Adirondacks stretches back to childhood summers in the late 1800s, this may be the definitive volume on the craft that has carried hunters, fishermen, trappers and traders throughout the storied ages. Impeccably researched, the book delves into both the history of the guide-boat and the fascinating fine points of its construction, as told to Durant by descendants of the pioneering boat builders. Augmented with invaluable appendices, and richly illustrated with archival photos and detailed drawings. Paperback; 250 pages
