One of
the things I want to do is drive though the Hudson River Valley. I have travelled though part of it by
train. In fact, the Amtrak ride from NYC
to Montreal is a stunning, beautiful trip.
I highly recommend everyone take that rail journey at least once. I do, however, want to drive though part of
those towns.
And
now, after reading this book, I have a couple more places I want to stop.
Adamovic
looks at the Hudson valley though the lenses of seasons. Along the way, he hits places of historical
importance – such as Sleepy Hollow. The focus
is mostly on the glorious scenery.
Adamovic places the wildlife in context, in other words it is just
seasonal behavior but also text that details the fauna and flora. The end of the book contains a location map
and directions, making the book a practical work of art.
The photos of the flowers and animals are
quite beautiful, including those photos of insect eating plants. The deer photo in particular was adorable.
