Description

Listen for a Lonesome Drum: A York State Chronicle brings to life the rich folklore, eccentric characters, and haunting legends of upstate New York. Traveling across the region--from Buffalo to the Adirondacks--Carl Carmer introduces readers to the Seneca and Tuscarora nations, the infamous Loomis Gang, the curious case of the Cardiff Giant, and the chilling tale of the Murdered Bride of Rensselaer County. These are not merely tales of the past--they echo a cultural landscape shaped by faith, scandal, resilience, and imagination.
Part cultural chronicle, part literary time capsule, this classic work invites readers to rediscover New York State not as it appears on maps, but as it endures in memory and legend.
