Customer Reviews

Outdated but not Outclassed

I know the Catskills very well. And I will tell you that this book is among the very best when it comes to the Catskills. I don't know about the Hudson Valley area too much except to say that those are the areas that change the most. But the Catskills don't change that much--because it's all state forest preserve and Forever Wild. Still a good deal for enthusiast, especially at the price! Kick's History and original research has been copied by many other writers.

A Classic

Fabulous--No matter if it's outdated. This book was written over 20 years ago, and has had no field updates (except for a contrived new edition foisted off by the publisher). If only guidebooks of today were written as well-- A must for any serious hiker of the hudson Valley and the catskills!
