Produktbeschreibung

Once upon a time on Deep Creek Lake...

Maryland has no natural lakes, but during the 1920s, a Pennsylvania electric company constructed Maryland's largest lake. Visitors have boated, swum, and fished the lake for decades, but it wasn't created as a natural resource, it was created to generate electricity.

• Read about the man who created the Big Mac sandwich and how he helped create some of the lake's tourist attractions.
• Discover the land where the buffalo roamed.
• Learn about the lake beneath Deep Creek Lake.
• Duck and hide from Garrett County's version of Lizzie Borden.
• Sail across the lake on a swan, an ice boat, and the Turkey Neck Queen.

Secrets of Deep Creek Lake: Little-Known Stories & Hidden History in and around Maryland's Largest Lake tells the stories of interesting people, unsolved crimes, and unusual incidents around and near Deep Creek Lake. These are the stories you won't read about in history books.

From award-winning author James Rada, Jr. comes another collection of fascinating stories and dozens of photographs that tell some of the hidden history of Deep Creek Lake.
