    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
