Adirondack: A Succession of Forest Peoples

  • Thoreau Society, Masonic Lodge 58 Monument Square Concord, MA, 01742 United States (map)

Of all the wilderness landscapes sacred to the New England transcendentalists, the “Great Northern Wilderness” we know today as Adirondack Park uniquely brings together and contrasts three cultures that shape the founding period of the nation: the Native American, the African American, and the European American. Each of these cultures is represented on this year’s IHF panel by a descendant who has made a profession of interpreting their inherited tradition.
