Produktbeschreibung
Covering more than 8,000 squares miles and spanning the roughly triangular area between Quebec; Dorset, Vermont; and Glens Falls, New York, the Champlain Valley has a rich heritage celebrated in hundreds of historical markers, monuments, mosaics, murals, and photographs. Although human inhabitation of the region began 10,000 years ago, these monuments to the past are considerably newer, with the earliest among them recognizing the European colonizers and settlers who followed Samuel de Champlain to the shores of Lake Champlain beginning in the 17th century. By the 18th century, the entire region was populated by villages, towns, and cities, all placed against the backdrop of the surrounding Adirondacks and Green Mountains and finding life in the network of rivers and fertile valleys of the Lake Champlain Basin. This collection brings together images from throughout the Champlain Valley, offering a vision of life and the ways markers celebrate local memories and ancestors.
