McMartin focuses on the uniqueness of the forty-four individual tracts that make up the two and a half million acre Forest Preserve within the Adirondack Park, chronicling the preserve's unusual origins, people, politics and economics that created what is now one of the most important wilderness areas in the eastern United States.

This is a gem of a book. It makes full use of Barbara McMartin's unique status as the most knowledgeable person alive and at work today in the Adirondack region.--Adirondac
In The Adirondack Park McMartin has aptly likened the various wild forest, wilderness, recreation, and primitive areas to a patchwork quilt, with landscapes connecting to jagged boundaries following rivers and narrow valleys. Recommended "views and visits" give readers an insider's advantage to making the most of any Adirondack expedition. With a storyteller's ease, McMartin provides a brief history and description of each area. She chronicles the preserve's unusual origins, people, politics, and economics that created what is now one of the most important wilderness areas in the eastern United States.
