First Printing - Tug Hill Country: Tales from the Big Woods by Harold E. Samson (1971) Vintage Hardcover Book
“Tug Hill Country is not just a hill, or a jumble of hills, or a region. It is also forest solitudes, and wild beasts, and tumbling trout streams that were once sources of unlimited water power. It is lumber camps and backwoods farms and high, stony pastures. It is desolation in winter and breathtaking beauty at all other times of the year. It is wild flowers and bird song and the music of winds in the evergreens. It is humor and trag-edy, courage and high resolve, success and failure. It is legend and fact, folklore and reality.”
A selection of biographies, history and tall tales from the Tug Hill Plateau region of upstate New York.
