The Mohawk Valley

by W. Max Reid (1839-1911)

An in-depth view and early history of the Mohawk Valley in upper New York
state, covering the time period of 1609-1780. This historical piece covers that
part of the Mohawk Valley between Schenectady and Rome, NY.

The narrator hopes that the listener understands that a best effort has been
made in pronunciation of many names within this work; particularly those of
the Mohawks, Iriquois, Huron, and Mohicans; as well as the French and Dutch.
