The New Erie Canal: Travel Guide & History

xii, 170 pp. "From the Great lakes to the Atlantic... Boating, biking, walking, picnicking, picture-taking and driving along the New Erie Canal. This is more than a cruising guide for long distance boaters. The New Erie Canal is also the perfect companion for motorists, bicyclists, tourists and history buffs traveling through an historically-rich, beautiful part of the country: the Erie from the Hudson River to Buffalo and Lake Erie; the Oswego to Lake Ontario; the Champlain to the St. Lawrence and Quebec; the Cayuga-Seneca to the Finger Lakes; and the Hudson River to the Atlantic. Bicycle routes and resources are described along with walking paths, anchorages and tie-ups. Here, too, is a great source of ideas for day trips, short excursions, picnic sites, fishing spots, weekend get-a-ways and a magnificent float on the Erie itself."
