Lorraine Duvall will read from her new book about her neighborhood in the northeast Adirondacks. There is something for everyone in this new addition to Adirondack Lore from memoir, to history, to environmental activism. She will encourage discussions on how a sense of place is instantiated when we study the history of our home.
Phil Terrie writes in the Foreword: There are few things more rewarding than researching and writing about a place you love. Some of us are born in the places that will always be our spiritual homes, while others move around for a while before finding the place where they belong more than anywhere else, where everything that came before was preparing them for their geographical lodestone. Lorraine Duvall found the Valley of Styles Brook, just northeast of the Adirondack High Peaks, as an adult. This book is the product of her affection for the Valley, its people, and its history
