This week “The Historians” podcast features an interview with Philip G. Terrie, author of the book Contested Terrain: A New History of Nature and People in the Adirondacks (Syracuse Univ. Press, 2008). Terrie has been researching and writing Adirondack history since 1971. He is an emeritus professor at Bowling Green State University and has been a visiting professor at SUNY Plattsburgh and SUNY Potsdam. He was a consultant to the PBS documentary on the Adirondacks.

“The Historians” theme music is “Gloucester Wassail”, performed by Liaisons Plaisantes from their CD, “A Plaisantes Christmas”. “The Historians” is recorded at Dave Greene’s Command Central Studio.
I am looking for a historian and writer to work with me on a project. someone familiar with the history of the adirondacks, indian life and the emergence of tourist hotels in the 1875, particularly those that were metaphysical and artistic in nature.
Please contact me via my web site contact page and rest assured this is a serious inquiry.
Thanks
Terry
