Wholesale Adirondacks' - Moose River Plains by William J. O'Hern

[Globe Pequot Publishing] A comprehensive informal history about the early Moose River Plains—once referred to as the Indian Clearing. The Plains' natural beauty makes up only one color of the territory. The Indian Clearing focuses on the first surveyors; a team of women naturalists; the pioneering Kenwell family; the restoration of beaver in the south branch; an influential lieutenant governor of New York state; a cheese-making industrialist who began the Kraft Cheese Company; a car-wheel millionaire and owner of Beaver Lake; legendary woodsman Gerald Kenwell's popular Otter Brook hunting and fishing camp; numerous camp caretakers and native guides; and more. Until now, there has been no recognized recorded work about this popular remote territory.
