Book excerpt: "God's Country" was the first name by which I knew the Adirondack Mountains. When I came Eagle Bay in 1937 as John Petersen's wife, I had carried with me since 1917 a mental picture of its beauty. That was when I had first met John, and at that time his description of the country he lived in and loved fitted the name by which he called it. Twenty years later when he brought me to Eagle Bay from Texas, he said we would live in God's Country. Two days after arriving in Eagle Bay I walked down to the beach. Looking over the blue waters of Fourth Lake to the triple rim of the mountains surrounding it with Dollar and Cedar Island lying in the middle of the lake, and the lush evergreens and majestic trees covering the mountains and the islands, it was not difficult for me to see God's handiwork in it at all. Truly I had come to see God's Country. Clara V. O'Brien

Book Synopsis Cranberry Lake and Wanakena by : Susan Thomas Smeby
Download or read book Cranberry Lake and Wanakena written by Susan Thomas Smeby and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the northwest corner of the Adirondack Park lie Cranberry Lake and the village of Wanakena. This remote area was the last-settled part of New York State; from the mid-1800s to the early 1900s, its name evoked the very essence of wilderness. Initially, sportsmen, naturalists, and artists flocked to the area. By 1900, summer tourism was booming. The logging industry followed, to harvest the virgin timber; after that, the state purchased the mostly cleared lands. Today, seventy-five percent of the lake's shoreline is state owned, and the Five Ponds Wilderness, south of Wanakena, is one of the largest and wildest areas in the Adirondacks.
