Book excerpt: The first settlers came to Saranac Lake beginning in 1819 to make a living from the forests of the Adirondacks. In the 1870s, wealthy city dwellers discovered the hunting, fishing, boating, and hiking available in these beautiful mountains, and Saranac Lake became the hub for local tourism. By 1900, Dr. Edward Livingston Trudeau had established the fresh-air cure for tuberculosis, and Saranac Lake became America's "Pioneer Health Resort." A culture of excellent medical facilities, an active arts scene, and a great library and educational system combined with traditional Adirondack values to make Saranac Lake "the Little City of the Adirondacks," a special place to everyone who got to know it. Later in the 20th century, the focus shifted from health to scientific research, education, state government offices, and the more middle class tourist industry of the post-World War II era. This designated All-America City has retained that special character.

Book excerpt: "Portrait of Healing chronicles the life and passions of the gifted and visionary physican, Edward L. Trudeau. Hope, courage, and unselfish devotion to others most certainly describes this man who founded the Adirondack Cottage Sanitorium, later to be renamed the Trudeau Sanitorium, in Saranac Lake, New York. This sanitorium was the first of its kind in America and became the model for the cure and treatment of tuberculosis throughout the United States. Trudeau, who was also suffering from tuberculosis, spent countless hours learning to correctly identify the tubercle bacillus. He created the first laboratory in the country to be exclusively devoted to the study of tuberculosis and developed unprecedented scientific evidence of the interaction between environment and disease."--Dust jacket flap.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a child in the 1930s, Spence spent several summers on Upper Saranac Lake, over which his imperious blue-blooded Kentucky grandfather presided. Using his grandfather as a focal point, the author depicts the construction, decor and lifestyle associated with the great camps. While his grandfather indulged a life of patrician arrogance by recasting his ancestors as Civil War heroes and cultivating the local elite, Bud, the young scion of his line, took up more practical pursuits. His tutor was the camp's handyman and erstwhile guide, an uncouth Swede who relished profanity and waged daily battles with a tin boat.
