Finding True North
Author: Fran Yardley
Publisher: SUNY Press
ISBN: 1438470525
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 340
Book Description
An evocative and personal history of a unique historic place in the Adirondacks. In 1968 Fran and Jay Yardley, a young couple with pioneering spirit, moved to a remote corner of the Adirondacks to revive the long-abandoned but historic Bartlett Carry Club, with its one thousand acres and thirty-seven buildings. The Saranac Lakearea property had been in Jays family for generations, and his dream was to restore this summer resort to support himself and, eventually, a growing family. Fran chronicles their journey and, along the way, unearths the history of those who came before, from the 1800s to the present. Offering an evocative glimpse into the past, Finding True North traces the challenges and transformations of one of the worlds most beautiful, least-celebrated places and the people who were tirelessly devoted to it. Fran Yardley is a superb storyteller, and this is a superb storyof a camp and of a marriage, illuminating a key corner of the slightly out-of-time paradise that is the Adirondacks. Bill McKibben, author of Radio Free Vermont: A Fable of Resistance Fran Yardley has given us an emotionally moving book, combining memoir and Adirondack history. With a singular and powerful voice, in a tightly organized narrative, she deftly weaves together two distinct strands: her own remarkable story and the history of Bartletts Carry. Philip Terrie, author of Seeing the Forest: Reviews, Musings, and Opinions from an Adirondack Historian Fran Yardleystoryteller, actress, writer, and stalwart Adirondackertakes us behind the balsam curtain to a truly magical place on the Saranac Lakes. Finding True North is the tale of families, forests, tragedy, and triumph told from the heart with deep insight. Its a terrific, immersive read. Elizabeth Folwell, editor-at-large, Adirondack Life Gifted storyteller Fran Yardley has harnessed her many voices to the printed page in this remarkable memoir. Yardley interweaves her firsthand experience hinged to historic documentation with her imagination as she reveals the lives and ways of those who went before and coexisted with her and Jay Yardley at Bartlett Carry. Finding True North is a must-read love story about Adirondack place and people. Caroline M. Welsh, Director Emerita, Adirondack Museum In Finding True North, Fran Yardley has produced an immediate and necessary addition to the body of Adirondack literature and history. Long in the making, it is beautifully written, authoritative, and moving. Christopher Shaw, author of Sacred Monkey River: A Canoe Trip with the Gods and former editor of Adirondack Life Author and master storyteller Fran Yardley tells of the early history of the aquatic Adirondack crossroads known as Bartlett Carry, the later history of the place as a club for families eager to swap conventional orbits outside the mountains for the natural world within, and the reinvention of the place by the author and her visionary late husband, Jay. The stories that flow together here touch the heart and bring the reader to tears and laughter. For lovers of the Adirondacks and particularly for those keen on understanding how the past shapes the present and the future, this is a must read.
