Woods and Waters

"Woods and Waters" by Alfred Billings Street transports the reader to the heart of the American wilderness in the mid-19th century. Through vivid prose and evocative poetry, Street captures the essence of the Adirondack region, its rivers, forests, and the spirit of adventure. More than a travelogue, it is a meditation on nature's beauty and the restorative power of solitude.

First published in 1860, Street's work offers a window into a bygone era, reflecting the romantic sensibilities of the time while celebrating the enduring allure of the natural world. This edition allows a new generation to discover the lyrical charm of a classic American nature writer.
