Synopsis

The residents of Harlem Valley have shaped both the history
and culture of our nation with bravery and integrity. Quakers in
the Harlem Valley stood firm against slavery, and the Amenia
Conference, organized by Joel Spingarn, strengthened the NAACP.
The Harlem Valley served as a transportation center, linking New
England to the west, and was also a major supplier of iron ore in the
eighteenth century. Well known for their educational endeavors, the
residents of Harlem Valley established one of the oldest libraries in
the state of New York.
The images in this collection were made available through the
efforts of many groups in the Harlem Valley area, including the
historical societies of North East, Little Nine Partners, Amenia,
Dover, Dutchess County, and Pawling and Quaker Hill. Join Joyce
Ghee and Joan Spence for a remarkable trip down memory lane
to the wonders of the Harlem Valley. This historic collection of
images will serve as a valuable tool in discovering and understanding
the area's history as well as appreciating its beauty. Harlem Valley
Pathways is sure to be enjoyed for generations to come.
