A comprehensive look at the Finger Lakes region of New York State; hidden places and roads, wineries, the Erie Canal and aerial shots of all 11 Finger Lakes. Follow-up ook to The Finger Lakes,... This description may be from another edition of this product.
I was overwhelmed with joy and melancholy when I cracked open this beautiful book. I am a former resident of Central New York (having lived near Conesus, Otisco and Skaneatles Lakes, and enjyoing trips with my father on Cayuga Lake, where he kept a 24 foot cabin cruiser for 5 years). Not only are the McCarthys skilled photographers, but the area itself is worthy of such a compendium. I particularly appreciated John McCarthy's descriptions of set-ups and time of day for particular shots, as well as the commentary regarding the history of the area. I've ordered several more copies for old friends who love the area as much as I do, and new friends who will once they take a look.

This is an absolutely beautiful pictorial book of our region. We gave these as thank you gifts to 16 speakers (10 were from other states) who spoke at a special anniversary conference we held this month. Since this conference is always in December, we wanted to showcase our area in all of the seasons. This book was very well received.

I was given this book by my oldest sister. I had moved away from the Finger Lakes when I was just 17. I keep it on my coffee table and share it with all my new friends here in Texas. These are some of the most beautiful pictures I have ever seen. I now give it as a gift to friends that too have moved away.Hope you enjoy it as much as I do!Sara Radford Thomas

This book has wonderful photographs of New York's Finger Lake region that are absolutely awe-inspiring and that bring back wonderful memories. Though I no longer live in the Finger Lakes area, this book is a wonderful reminder of the beauty that is found there. This is truly a must have book that should be proudly displayed.
