[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP who recommended the book here...I grew up in Northern Dutchess! And I'm married to an Indian American, who is not from NY, lol. There's an Indian restaurant I've been dying to try in Rhinebeck but my H hasn't come with me to visit in a while and my parents don't eat Indian food. Maybe I'll just go by myself. :)[/quote] I'm the OP and would go for a research trip! Plus I love Indian food. I'm so fascinated with the steamboat races, all the stops and manors along the Hudson (yes, FDR! Hyde Park!) and what a fascinating and influential area it became. From the heritage of the Dutch settlers (Sleepy Hollow and very tidy farms) and the integration of other settlers, military strategy and shipping of the Hudson, and the beginning of wealth and leisure (Saratoga Springs). Did you do a lot of local history growing up? [/quote]
