This is a treasure trove of little-known lore and rarely seen images of the heart of the Catskill Park -- Kaaterskill Clove, the mountain ravine that defined picturesque and sublime for generations of nineteenth-century artists and travelers. Home to numerous waterfalls -- including Kaaterskill Falls, New York's highest -- soaring cliffs, and world-renowned views of all Creation (as James Fenimore Cooper described it), Kaaterskill Clove helped launch the Hudson River School of landscape painting and became America's first mountain resort destination.
