The Finest Square Mile: Mount Jo and Heart Lake by Sandra Weber
Regular price $15.00
Through her historical text and the b&w photos that she has chosen to include, author Sandra Weber recounts the Adirondack odyssey of Josephine Schofield and Henry Van Hoevenberg, who fell in love as they climbed to the top of Mount Marcy. Looking from the summit, they found a spot to build a rustic lodge with land surrounding a little heart-shaped lake which they proclaimed "the finest square mile in which to get closest to Nature." The author also offers surprising new evidence about Miss Schofield's supposed leap over Niagrara Falls.
