My aim is to answer questions oftenest asked, to tell of things that seem most to interest the public, and in so doing will probably say many foolish things and talk about little things, but it is well to remember that life is made up of little things, and a laughing baby is more endurable than a cross philosopher, therefore do not expect bomb-shells from a shot gun, or very much sense in the follow¬ ing pages. Although the main object is to give information (for a consideration), I may occasionally slop over into sentiment, but will try and not afflict my read¬ ers very often in that way, while for the benefit of such as are in constant danger of making mistakes, 1 will point out places where it is considered emi¬ nently proper to go into ecstacies over scenery, etc. I am not going to write a history, however, because the wear and tear on an ordinary brain must be immense; and, moreover, the country is full of them. All others who have written of the silvery lake have made discoveries, I have not. I regret exceedingly that such is the case. 1 have, however, served the principal events up in a new dress, and in the light of later revelations, twisted some of the old ones about so as to answer every purpose ; but it all happened some time ago, is, Ego 9 consequently of little interest to the general reader und has, therefore, been given in small doses, which may be skipped at pleasure for the hotels and other things of the present day. Thanks are due (in the first edition, as is custom¬ ary) to many kind friends for help in bringing it to a head, and especially to Dr. A. W. Holden, the historian, for valuable assistance in the particu¬ lar branch which has been his life study and as such to be relied on. Prefaces are detestable and seldom read, but if nothing was created in vain the writer hopes, by putting this excuse among the legitimate reading matter, that some absent minded ones may possibly struggle through to the end before discovering their mistake, and thus become acquainted with a few of the reasons, and perhaps think kindly of him who now bids farewell to earthly fears, and wades shiveringly into the surging sea of literature. Glens Falls, May, 1873. S. R. S. The narrative portion and ancient history contained in the following- pages were written as above ; the more modern history and the advice at a later date, at intervals when ripening years and the annual revision seemed to make such new matter timely. The above, which appeared in the first edition, has been retained as a relic of Lake George. What follows is an arrangement of old and new matter in convenient form, and it is believed, gives the reader about all the information that can be digested in a trip through the lake — the numer¬ ous cuts and small maps rendering him or her independent of outside help. The increasing sales have also made it possible to give the large colored map of Lake George, surveyed and published by the author in 1879-80 and revised to date, with the book without increasing the price — and yet there’s more to follow. June 25, 1888. S. V' N - FF for Lake George! How the heart bounds and the pulse quickens at the very sound of the words that bring with them v thoughts of the holy lake. In fancy we once again breathe the air, heavy with the odor of pines and cedar, or fragrant wit! the breath of blossoming clover.. Again we wander among the daisies and but¬ tercups that gem the hillside, sloping so gently down to where the wavelets kiss the white beach, or floating among the verdant islands watch the sunlight and shadows chase each other up the mountain side, while every crag and fleecy cloud is mirrored in the quiet waters below.

    Acknowledgments THIS BOOKLET I S THE PRODUCT Of THE work of many individuals. Although it is based on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), tlus booklet would not have been produced without the support and cooperation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Patrick Pergola served as project coordinator for the wetlands inventory and Dan Montella was project coordinator for the preparation of this booklet. Ralph Tiner coordi­ nated the effort for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). Data compiled from the NWI serve as the foun­ dation for much of this report. Information on the wetland status for this area is the result of hard work by photointerpreters, mainly Irene Huber (University of Massachusetts) with assistance from D avid Foulis and Todd Nuerminger. Glenn Smith (FWS) provided quality control of the interpreted aerial photographs and draft maps and collected field data on wetland communities. Tim Post (N.Y. State D epartment of Environmental Conservation), John Swords (FWS), James Schaberl and Chris Martin (National Park Ser­ vice) assisted in the field and the review of draft maps. Among other FWS staff contributing to this effort were Kurt Snider, Greg Pipkin, Kevin Bon, Becky Stanley, and Matt Starr. The booklet was reviewed by several people including Kathleen Drake (EPA), G eorge H odgson (Saratoga County Environmental Management Council), John Hamilton (Soil and W ater Conserva­ tion District), Dan Spada (Adirondack Park Agency), Pat Riexinger (N.Y. State Department of Environ­ mental Conservation), Susan Essig (FWS), and Jen­ nifer Brady-Connor (Association of State Wetland Nlanagers).

While it may appear more exciting to tackle "new" sites, we have a strong ethical obligation to make sure that older excavations are published, even when the original research was directed by others. I also wish to thank Mike Palumbo, Curator at Fort William Henry, for many stimulating conversations and for giving me access to photographs and artifacts from the 1950s excavation; and thanks go to the Fort William Henry Corporation for allowing me to reproduce archival photographs.
