Description
Excerpt from The Mohawk Trail: Its History and Course With Map and Illustrations
The building of the new State Highway across Hoosac mountain was an event which turned a great volume of travel through a region which had been little appreciated, and seen by necessarily few tourists. With this great volume. Of travel over a splendid highway, bearing a name which implies a history of its own, there was awakened a desire to learn what that history is.
Many travelers have asked what justification there is for supposing that there ever was an Indian trail across the moun tain, and many more who knew that a trail did exist, were eager to know at what places they traversed the ancient path.
In an endeavor to satisfy these inquirers, this story of the Trail has been written.
