Editorial Reviews

Review

"Gary A. Randorf captures not only the look of the Adirondacks, but also the feel." -- Neal Burdick, Explorer



"Randorf has a great understanding of this special place... Randorf's exceptional photography provides a stunning glimpse at the Adirondack peaks... The reader is then led gently into the notion of retreat and wilderness, and presented with the age-old Adirondack question: Can development and wilderness coexist?" -- Mike Brennan, New York State Conservationist



"Beautifully illustrated... this book recounts the history of the Adirondack Park... Serves as a travel guide for those wishing to visit." -- Northeastern Naturalist



Review

"I have gotten such pleasure out of reading The Adirondacks: Wild Island of Hope. Through the photos and the text, you have captured this special place." -- Frances Beinecke, National Resources Defense Council
