Mamakating - Hardcover

by Monika A. Roosa (Author)

At first glance, Mamakating appears to be an unassuming township in southeastern New York State, but upon closer examination, it is found to be the home of some landmark sites: the first recognized
road in America, now Route 209; the groundbreaking spot for the first million-dollar private corporation formed in the United States, the D&H Canal; and the oldest soaring airport in the country, the Wurtsboro Airport. Mamakating offers a historical perspective of this friendly lake-and-mountain town in the Catskill region that many New
York City residents chose, first as a vacation spot and later as their permanent home.
