Water Reflections

Tales of the Lakes, Rivers and Streams of the Adirondacks and Beyond

By: Elisabeth Merrett

A clear, swift-running stream, an exhilarating whitewater stretch of river, the mesmerizing rhythm of waves on an ocean beach, each has a story to tell. Set mostly in the Adirondack Mountains of New York State, the stories in Water Reflections explore the authors delight in being in or near water, whether as an active participant or an appreciative observer. In a series of memoirs that extend from the 1940s to the present, the reader is invited to check out the sights and sounds that are a part of these experiences. So come watch the early morning mist rise on Schroon Lake, or paddle on Lake Champlain along the shores of North Hero Island, or hike up Mount Marcy alongside Johns Brook, all without ever leaving the house. - from back cover.

Storied Landscapes

A Journey

By: Elisabeth Merrett

The bedtime stories that Sherman Graff told his oldest daughter as she was growing up in Manhattan left a lasting impression on her. They were wondrous adventures set in a distant place, among a different people. Storied Landscapes tells of the author's trip to Oregon, years after her father's death, to find the Indian Reservation where he had lived for a time as a young boy. The stories helped her to locate the mission church and the place where the family had lived, each name of a road or a river providing the needed clues. Side by side with the four Reservation Stories are the author's own tales of childhood, some forty years later and on the opposite end of the country, revealing the strength of the bonds of family across time and geography.
