The books/stories offered on this web site can readily be labeled as 'clean', they contain no obscene language or intimate sex scenes!  They were written for family consumption and being historically-based, the characters involved are written about as the human condition was known at the time! Violence, both from humans and varmints, accidents and illness often occurred without warning! You as a reader are invited to learn of the history of the upper Susquehanna Valley while enjoying  fine stories about the kinds of people it took to pioneer this unique part of New York State. The stories' main thread weave a narrative from the headwaters of Otsego (Glimmerglass) Lake down to the Pennsylvania border, including Oaks Creek, Cherry Valley Creek, Schenevus Creek, Charlotte Creek, Otego Creek, Otsdawa Creek, Ouleout Creek, Unadilla River, Oquaga Creek, and Chenango River valleys. These watersheds nourished and encouraged pioneers, largely, from the New England states to clear the land and build farms, mills and ultimately communities. While centered on the Oneonta area the tales acquaint the reader with the history of a broad stretch of central New York. Every attempt has been made to stay true to historical facts by detailed research.
