Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the lives of the rural inhabitants settled within the low outlying ridges of the Adirondacks, shedding light on the simple honesty and quiet dignity that have long defined their character. In a broader historical context, these settlers have faced displacement by foreign laborers who often fail to recognize the value of the old settlers' ways of living. The author illustrates ways in which the themes of displacement, simple living, and the depth of character hidden in unlikely places are woven throughout the book. The text serves to remind readers of the value of honesty, simplicity, and resilience in the face of adversity. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
