Parker:</strong><br /> 'Nobody does it better' <em>Publishers Weekly</em><br /> 'Tougher, stronger, better educated, and far more amusing than Sam Spade, Phil Marlowe or Lewis Archer . . .

An Unconventional Childhood Growing up in the Catskill Mountains During the 1950s and 1960s【電子書籍】[ Marilyn Mayes Kaltenborn ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This light-hearted memoir takes place in Fleischmanns, NY, a small Catskill Mountain village whose population increased from a few hundred to many thousands during the summer in the 1950s and 1960s. While some people think small towns are boring places to live, the author and her brothers were seldom bored, usually thanks to their parents' ideas on how to occupy their time. While the family was outwardly very conventional, Marilyn and her brothers were allowed to, among other things, smoke cigarettes starting at the age of two and a half, smoke corn silk and string, make gun powder, roller skate around the dining room table on the wall-to-wall carpet, and ride couch cushions down the stairs. The book is a vivid and humorous account of many wonderful childhood adventures.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,334円

Bungalow Kid A Catskill Mountain Summer【電子書籍】[ Philip Ratzer ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>The year is 1958. Philip, a twelve-year-old kid from the Bronx, is getting ready for his family's annual trip upstate, where he'll spend the summer in a bungalow colony in the tiny village of Loch Sheldrake, New York, a faraway fairyland of mountains, lakes, starry nights, and dewy mornings. With his colony friends, he'll explore the woods and fields, have an array of adventures, and even experience the special charm of a childhood summer romance. It was a time and place of wonderful memories wistfully looked back upon fifty years later, and lovingly recalled in Philip Ratzer's memoir. What young Philip didn't know was that there would never be another summer like this one.</p> <p>He was not alone. In the 1950s, about two thousand bungalow colonies dotted the countryside of Sullivan and Ulster counties, catering to an estimated one million people a year who spent all or part of their summer in "The Mountains." Among them were countless kids like Philip, who today carry with them the fondest of memories and a nostalgic longing for a precious moment in time that can never be equaled. Today, they find themselves returning to the country, seeking out the places where they stayed so long ago, only to find that the world has changed a lot in fifty years, and time has a way of erasing all evidence of a world that used to be. Bungalow Kid vividly recreates what it was like to be a city kid in the Catskills in the 1950s, and reaches out to all those kids, now grown, who would very much like to go back.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,697円

Catskill Summers【電子書籍】[ Mel Senator ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Summers in the country had special meaning for people who lived in the city during the 1940s and 1950s. Away from the dirt and noise, they could sit in a lawn chair and play a game of cards, or go for a walk, or pick blueberries on a lazy afternoon. Then to cap it off, they would pay fifty cents and see a real show at a "ritzy" Catskill mountain hotel. While all this was special for them, it was even more important that they bring their children out of the city to be part of the rural past they so often dreamed about.</p> <p>This is a story about life in a bungalow colony in the Catskill Mountains of the 1940s and 1950s. It is the experience that thousands of people from the city shared when going to the country for the summer. It represents a delicious moment in time for those families who made it out of the city and into the wonders of the Catskill countryside.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,144円

Skiing in the Catskill Region【電子書籍】[ George V. Quinn ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Arriving by train to Phoenicia, New York, in the mid-1930s, downhill skiers first discovered the snowy trails of Simpson Ski Slope. Soon after, many Borscht Belt hotels were offering skiing and skating as ways to fill rooms during cold winter months when crowds thinned. In the high central Catskills, where abundant snowfall was a big draw, many abandoned rooming houses were commandeered to serve as base lodges for fledgling ski areas. In addition to farming and logging, skiing became an important industry to the area. People found steady employment in dozens of new areas sprouting all over the mountains. Downhill skiing is just part of the region?s history. Ski jumping, racing, ski clubs, fashion, and colorful personalities were all part of the experience.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,735円

A Catskill Journey【電子書籍】[ Paul H Zimmerman ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p><strong>Catskill historical novel</strong></p> <p>Karl Debacher led a fulfilling but unexciting life as an accountant in New York City in 1892. Encouraged to take a well-deserved vacation, he takes a steamship north up the Hudson River, then a train and a carriage to the <strong>Catskill Mountain House</strong>. Perched on a high cliff facing east overlooking the Hudson Valley, the Mountain House was one of several nearby fine hotels well known for splendid views and exemplary hospitality. Connected by trails, trains and carriage roads, the rustic beauty of the surroundings enticed thousands a year to take a journey to the Catskill Mountains.</p> <p>Elizabeth Jackson had worked for Herr Strand at the hotel for years and was unprepared to fall in love with Karl. But it happened.</p> <p><strong>From the author</strong></p> <p>Camping and hiking for many years in the beautiful <strong>Catskill Mountains of upstate New York</strong> I grew more interested in learning the history of the area. The old engravings chiseled in the stone cliff and the state information sign at the Catskill Mountain House location in Haines Falls encouraged me to learn more. Roland Van Zandt's excellent book 'The Catskill Mountain House' has many interesting (actually, fascinating) facts and stories that have been almost forgotten about the hotels and thousands of people who enjoyed the area for decades over one hundred years ago. Each hotel had different amenities and attractions. The Catskill Mountain House, the Hotel Kaaterskill, and the Laurel House Hotel were all different in their accommodations and degree of sophistication.</p> <p>I wrote my historical novel 'A Catskill Journey' as a love story to knit together the <strong>history of the Catskill Mountains in the late 1800's</strong> in a way that encourages readers to learn more. The hotel buildings are gone, and the foundations reclaimed by the forest. But the trails, views and waterfalls remain for us to enjoy now as visitors did then.</p> <p>For more information visit: AheadofThePress.com/catskill</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 681円

Catskill Village【電子書籍】[ Richard Philp ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>Catskill Village has deep roots in the long human history of the Hudson River Valley, from its native population who greeted Henry Hudson on his voyage upriver in 1609 to its early settlers. Today?s village is located on the commercially advantageous landing on the Hudson River. In 1802, the Susquehanna Turnpike opened the village to the expanding western frontier, and Catskill Village became one of the most prominent commercial ports on the Hudson River. Local trades such as shipbuilding, tanning, farming, brickmaking, fishing, and tourism flourished. By the mid-20th century, the long era of prosperity had faded, only to rise phoenixlike in the past decade with an infusion of young professionals, artists, craftsmen, merchants, and those determined to save and restore the village?s exceptionally rich architectural heritage.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 1,735円

Not unusually, Rip stood there and listened in silence. When she finished her tirade, he picked up his musket and set off into the mountains with his trusty dog, Wolf, to hunt.<br /> On this day when the shadows were getting longer, he called his dog and started for home. Then he heard a voice crying his name “Rip van Winkle, Rip van Winkle.” Following the voice he found an old man, short and square, with a shock of thick bushy hair, and a long greyish beard. He was dressed after the Dutch fashion of a hundred years back, in a jacket belted round the waist, and several pairs of breeches, weighed down by a heavy load. Being his helpful self, Rip offers to help the man carry his load home. Pausing to ease his load, up ahead he spied a hollow. At the entrance to the hollow Rip paused again, for before him was a group of little men playing ninepins.<br /> They invited him in and offered to share some of their ale with him. Thirsty, Rip readily agreed and not long after Rip felt his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. Not being able to keep his eyes open any longer, Rip succumbed to the sleep now overtaking his whole body.<br /> Download and read the story of Rip Van Winkle, more astounding for what he found after he awoke than for his life before he met the small men.</p> <p>Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world.

Big, Wild, and Connected Part 2: From the Central Appalachians to the Catskill Mountains【電子書籍】[ John Davis ]

楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
<p>This E-ssential is a three-part series that covers John Davis's epic journey from Florida to Maine. In 2011, with support from the Wildlands Network, Davis traveled 7,600 miles in 10 months from Florida to Maine by foot, bicycle, skis, and canoe/kayak. His extensive travels were motivated by wanting to answer the question “Is it possible in the twenty-first century to identify and protect a continental-long wildlife corridor that could help to protect eastern nature into the future?”</p> <p>John paints a vivid picture of the physical challenges of the trek, such as climbing the highest point in South Carolina with a heavily loaded bike and trying to consume the 8,000 calories per day he needed to fuel himself for the journey. As readers adventure with Davis, they will also share his evolving understanding of what it would take to implement an Eastern Wildway.</p> <p>Eastern wildlife, both seen and unseen, from Florida panthers to North Carolina’s red wolves to the ghosts of cougars farther north, are the real focus of this adventure as John explores how such wildness can coexist with human development in the most populated regions of the United States. The science and conservation of large-scale connectivity are brought to life by his travelsーoffering unique insights into the challenges and opportunities for creating an Eastern Wildway. This is a must-read for enthusiasts of hiking narratives, as well as professionals and students interested in issues related to large-scale connectivity. Compelling photographs and other graphics complement John’s fascinating story.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 960円

<p>In 'In the Catskills: Selections from the Writings of John Burroughs', readers will find a collection of essays and observations on nature and the outdoors in the Catskill Mountains. Burroughs' prose is lyrical and vivid, capturing the beauty of the natural world with a keen eye for detail. His writings reflect the transcendentalist movement of the late 19th century, emphasizing the connection between humanity and the environment. Readers will be transported to the serene wilderness of the Catskills through Burroughs' evocative descriptions and deep appreciation for the natural world. John Burroughs, a renowned naturalist and essayist, was deeply inspired by the landscapes of the Catskill Mountains. His observations on nature were shaped by his close relationship with iconic figures such as Walt Whitman and Ralph Waldo Emerson. Burroughs' writings continue to influence environmental literature and the conservation movement. I highly recommend 'In the Catskills' to readers who appreciate lyrical nature writing and want to escape into the serene landscapes of the Catskill Mountains through the eyes of a masterful observer like John Burroughs.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。 300円
