Informazioni su questo libro

Discover the History Behind the Beauty of Long Island's Most Cherished Parks Each year, tens of millions of people visit Long Island's state parks. Most visitors are unaware that each one of the state parks has its own fascinating chapter in the region's storied history. Some were once vast estates of New York's elite during the turn-of-the-century Gilded Age, such as Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park. Others were "hunting clubs," where wealthy members banded together to create retreats, including Caleb Smith State Park Preserve. Montauk's Camp Hero has a multigenerational military history, even inspiring conspiracies that the government experimented with mind control and time travel. Underprivileged children from the bustling boroughs of New York City found fresh air and formative experiences at Camp William Carey in today's Hallock State Park Preserve. Author Kristen Matejka presents the hidden history of the New York state parks on Long Island.
