Felix Adler and Louis Marshall were accomplished intellectuals and leaders of the Jewish community at the end of the nineteenth century. Their love of nature led to creation of the Felix Adler Trail and the Mt. Marshall landmark in the Adirondacks. But how did the two men and their families shield themselves against the antisemitism they faced? How did the Marshall family deal with flagrant episodes of prejudice permeating the mountain grandeur that they were instrumental in preserving for posterity?
