DuFresne\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTales of early railroads, like veins of historical gold, sparkle with rich nuggets of the nation's past, as well as enchanting images of small-town life. This is the story of one such vein: the Delaware \u0026amp; Hudson Railroad in the Tri Valley area of New York, along the path of old Route 7 and the Schohanna Trail. The stories of communities that grew up along the railroad--Oneonta, Colliersville, Maryland, Schenevus, Decatur, Worcester, East Worcester, Richmondville, Cobleskill, and Central Bridge--reveal historical treasures long buried in the archives of rural valleys and bustling towns. Pan for gold in the pictures of Tri Valley: Cobleskill to Colliersville and you will find nuggets such as these: the birthplace of the men who invented the fountain pen and the air brake; the sad legends of Manaho and Chief Schenevus; the clash between sentiment and commercialism, as a bank was built on the grave sites of Pres. James Garfield's ancestors; and the final resting place of Seth Flint, who was Gen. Ulysses S. Grant's bugler in the Civil War and at Appomattox.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 130\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 08, 2001\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42167623712903,"sku":"9781531605766","price":43.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0601\/2623\/2711\/files\/2a58f5597649393fb957d0778b1c3c66.webp?v=1733329099","url":"https:\/\/booksby.splitshops.com\/products\/tri-valley-cobleskill-to-colliersville-hardcover","provider":"Books by splitShops","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
