Description
The Mohawk country is layered much deeper with historic than with fluvial sediments. . . . Hislop has a deep understanding of the Mohawk as a river of seeking humanity.-- "New York Times Book Review" Hislop has brought to a rich subject . . . an unfailing sense of the picturesque, the significant, and the dramatic. He presents the story of the Mohawk in terms of sweeping narrative and with a kindled imagination. The Mohawk drains a historic country, and this fine book illuminates it at every stage.-- "Chicago Tribune"
