Book synopsis

For over two hundred years, the Catskill Mountains have been repeatedly and dramatically transformed by New York City. In "Making Mountains", David Stradling shows the transformation of the Catskills landscape as a collaborative process, one in which local and urban hands, capital, and ideas have come together to reshape the mountains and the communities therein. This collaboration has had environmental, economic, and cultural consequences. David Stradling is associate professor of history at the University of Cincinnati.
