This book paints an idyllic portrait of family life set against the beautiful backdrop of the Adirondack Mountains. The author deftly captures the joys and challengers of raising a large family in the wilderness, and the deep bonds that unite them. As the family navigates the adventures and mishaps that come their way, they learn valuable lessons about self-reliance, perseverance, and the importance of cherishing each other. The author's keen eye for detail and evocative prose transport readers to a bygone era, where the natural world played a central role in everyday life. The descriptions of the family's cabin, the surrounding wilderness, and the adventures they experience within it are both vivid and enchanting. Profusely illustrated with black & white photos. Illustrations include many pictures from photographs taken by S.R. Stoddard.
