  • Dear Friend and Fellow History Buff
    PLEASE PRING THESE ENTIRE FIVE PAGES. THE LAST TWO PAGES MUST BE MAILED IN TO SECURE YOUR RESERVATION. Dear Friend and Fellow History Buff: We’ve saved the best for last. Autumnal New England. Glorious fall foliage, the colors splashed against mountain ranges carpeted by hickory, maple, and the sweet gum. The days are warm – most of the time – the evening air is crisp — and the landscape dotted with villages as stylized as a Grandma Moses painting. Which reminds me: among half a dozen places we’ve never visited before is the acclaimed Bennington Museum, home to the world’s largest collection of Moses’ work. It’s just one of the sites that make this fall’s “A Presidential Tour of New York, New England & the Hudson Valley” (October 1 – 10, 2016) a combination of old favorites and such first-time attractions as Washington Irving’s Sunnyside estate; the newly renovated FDR Library and Museum; the Ground Zero Memorial and 9/11 Memorial Museum; and the Concord Museum, home to an original Paul Revere lantern, not to mention Emerson’s study and the contents of Thoreau’s famous cabin at nearby Walden Pond. I needn’t remind you that our hotels – most booked for two or even three night stays – are the cream of the crop. Likewise, we’ll be dining at such celebrated institutions as Sylvia’s Soul Food in Harlem, Boston’s Union Oyster House (JFK’s favorite), the world-famous Culinary Institute of America, and the legendary Durgin Park in the shadow of a teaming Quincy Market (we’ve been careful to set aside free time in Boston to allow those so inclined to shop till they drop).
