Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born out of a disastrous flood and one of the first large environmental protests in the US, the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area now provides a 70,000-acre connection to the natural world to four million visitors a year. This unit of the National Park Service preserves historical sites that predate English settlement in the New World and evidence of Native Americans going back 13,000 years. Established in 1965, Delaware Water Gap NRA also incorporates 40 miles of the Middle Delaware National and Scenic Recreation River, 28 miles of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail, a state forest, and state wildlife management areas. Its many natural features include the highest waterfalls in two states, plus a geological feature once recognized as a scenic Wonder of the World. See why Condé Nast Traveler named the Delaware Water Gap the most beautiful place in Pennsylvania.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Europeans first settled in what was to become the Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DWGNRA) in the 17th century. By the late 1800s, the Delaware Water Gap had become a popular vacation spot, attracting thousands to the palatial resorts in the mountains. Rural communities thrived in the valley until the 1960s. The DWGNRA was created in 1965 to oversee activities centered around a reservoir that was to be the result of a dam to be built on the Delaware River at Tocks Island. In anticipation of the dam, the government removed residents by purchasing or condemning property. An environmental and political war raged, and the dam was ultimately defeated. Although several historical sites were lost, many survived and a few have been restored. Today the DWGNRA is one of the country's most popular parks. Within its boundaries are rugged and beautiful wilderness, historic landmarks, and the wild and scenic Delaware River.

This book was released on 2022-06-27 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area (DEWA) is among the busiest National Park Service (NPS) units with millions of annual visitors. In this book, David Fazzino uses oral history and archival work to consider the ramifications of government land takings, done half a century ago to uproot families and communities across 70,000 acres in Pennsylvania and New Jersey. Fazzino situates these land takings in historical context to explain the ways places have been taken, both physically and ideologically, in the name of progress, development, wilderness, and recreation. The author contrasts legal valuations, measured along utilitarian and material lines, with lived valuations which account for place as experiential, intimate, personal, and relational. Fazzino also considers the ruins of what was and the remains of past lives in the valley to suggest inclusive possibilities of future management regimes in DEWA and federal public lands more broadly.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Emerging from the Catskills, the Delaware River winds along the border between Pennsylvania and New Jersey to the Atlantic, offering hundreds of miles of magnificent scenery. Its sparkling waters supported the Lenape tribes growing maize along its banks. English explorers sailed the river in search of the mythical Lake Laconia, believed to be the source of all northeastern rivers. Urban growth pitted railroads, industry and energy companies against protectionists in continuing fights over appropriate use of the river. Hunting, fishing and boating remain vital local traditions passed from one generation to the next. Author Frank H. Moyer charts the life and legacy of the mighty Delaware.

Book excerpt: This report explores the history of the Minisink Valley and the stories told about it.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As early as 1829, Antoine Dutot saw potential for a profitable resort industry at the Delaware Water Gap and began construction of the first Kittatinny House overlooking the Delaware River. After the arrival of the Delaware, Lackawanna and Western Railroad in 1856, other hostelries of various sizes and appointments followed and were soon filled each summer with happy vacationers from New York City and Philadelphia. Residents of surrounding villages on both sides of the Delaware River also shared the seasonal wealth of this natural playground, yet they still managed to make a living during the rest of the year. River Towns of the Delaware Water Gap salutes the grand hotels, their diminutive little sisters, and the people who ran them or lived in the gap and its neighboring river towns.
