Synopsis

Explore a lakeside legacy at Mohican House on Lake George, a century‑old refuge for travelers and anglers.

This nonfiction portrait traces the Mohican House from its early days under Gale through its growth as a popular summer destination. It covers owners, leases, and community ties that helped Bolton Landing become a noted resort. You’ll glimpse the hotel’s landmark features, from the long porch to the sea‑wall and the dock that welcomed steamboats and guests. The narrative also touches nearby properties and the rise of the Sagamore hotel, built nearby and later rebuilt after a devastating fire. The book weaves in local history, guidebook accounts, and the role of the Mohican in shaping Lake George tourism and hospitality.

What you’ll experience
- A historical overview of the Mohican House, its property, and key families involved
- Context for Bolton Landing’s development and the naming of its post office
- Details about the Sagamore hotel’s creation, destruction by fire, and renewal
- Insights from period guidebooks describing the grounds, rooms, and amenities

Ideal for readers who enjoy regional history, historic hotels, and the Lake George area.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
