SUMMARY:Outsider: Stories of Growing Up Black in the Adirondacks by Alice Paden Green
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual program. \n“Outsider: Stories of Growing Up Black in the Adirondacks” details Alice Paden Green’s experiences as her family grappled with poverty\, race and acceptance in the mid-20th century. This memoir\, prompted by a recent gathering of Blacks and whites in the Adirondacks for a discussion on race relations\, explores perceptions of Black families in the ’50s and ’60s and whether Blacks are still viewed as outsiders or welcomed with open arms in this four-season\, recreational playground dominated by white residents. \nThis book adds to the narrative on whether more work should be done to diversify the Adirondack region. \nAbout The Speaker:\n \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Aviation in the Adirondacks By Aurora Pfaff
DESCRIPTION:This is a virtual program. \nSince 1912\, when a young man named George Gray landed an open-cockpit biplane on a farmer’s field\, aviation has played an important role in communities located throughout the 6 million-acre Adirondack Park. Through a range of historic images and postcards\, Aurora Pfaff tells the story of pilots who linked communities by air\, transported goods and people\, and the small towns and airfields that they called home. From the novelty of planes landing on skis and daredevil flying circuses to forest fire patrols\, exploration of the vast backcountry\, and toy deliveries by Santa\, airplanes have opened the Adirondack wilderness and made remote communities more easily accessible for tourists and adventurers. Yet this golden age for aviation would not last\, for as car travel became easier and more affordable in the mid- to late-20th century\, air travel in the Adirondacks would fade in importance and necessity. \nImages used in Aviation in the Adirondacks come from the Adirondack Experience: The Museum on Blue Mountain Lake\, Historic Saranac Lake\, Keene Valley Library\, Piseco Lake Historical Society\, Saranac Lake Free Library Adirondack Research Room\, Town of Webb Historical Association\, individuals\, and other organizations. \nAbout The Speaker:\n \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Where The Styles Brook Waters Flow: The Place I Call Home By Lorraine Duvall
