Discover the natural and architectural wonders that abound along New York’s Hudson River Valley in this lavishly illustrated travel and field guide. The unique scenery, fauna and wildlife, and architecture of the valley, from Sleepy Hollow near New York City north to the town of Catskill, are showcased through 150 colour photos. Brief essays relate the majesty of the four seasons in the valley, its waterfalls, bogs, people, history, and more.
