SUMMARY:First Adirondackers\, by Curt Stager and David Kanietakeron Fadden
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual program.  \nThe First Adirondackers reaches far beyond the familiar timelines of settlement to tell a deeper story of the Adirondacks – one that has been shaped by an Indigenous presence for more than 12\,000 years. Blending scientific insight with Indigenous knowledge and storytelling\, the book reveals how Native peoples lived with\, learned from\, and stewarded this landscape across countless generations. Through changing climates\, waterways\, and lifeways\, authors Curt Stager and David Kanietakeron Fadden illuminate a history that has too often been overlooked or simplified. The Adirondacks emerge not as an untouched wilderness\, but as a homeland rich with memory\, meaning\, and continuity. The First Adriondackers invites readers to reconsider what they think they know about the region and the enduring relationship between people and place. \nClick here to buy the book from the ADKX Store! \nAbout The Speaker:\nCurt Stager is a scientist\, educator\, and author whose work brings the deep history of climate\, water\, and landscape vividly to life.
