In the Wilderness

Join us on a captivating journey through eight insightful essays inspired by Charles Dudley Warner’s adventures in the Adirondacks. With a delightful touch of dry humor, Warner explores a diverse array of topics—from playful parodies of the popular ‘sportsman’ tales of his time to a heartfelt appeal for hunting regulations from a deer’s perspective. Youll meet a memorable local guide and reflect on the intricate relationship between humanity and the wilderness. While much has evolved in the Adirondacks since the 1870s, the experience of getting lost in the woods remains timeless and relatable. (Summary by Zach Hoyt)
