Publisher's Synopsis
From its top, Anthony's Nose, a mountain located along the Hudson River in New York State, offers a -180 degree, panoramic, awe-inspiring view of the Hudson Valley. It stands as the southern gateway to the Hudson Highlands, a series of 17 mountains on the east side of the Hudson River and 16 on the west side. Many historical and cultural events took place near Anthony's Nose. This book provides a bird's-eye view of 40 of these that had an impact on the area, the country and, in some cases, the world. Each has a story behind it, grounded in the historical (primary source) documents used here to tell.
