An Unforgiving Land: Hardscrabble Life in the Trapps, A Vanished Shawangunk Mountain Hamlet, has just been released by Black Dome Press–coauthored by Robi Josephson and Bob Larsen.
Their book is the definitive chronicle.
~ Glenn Hoagland, Executive Director, Mohonk Preserve
This book is a testament to the love and affection for detail that both Larsen and Josephson bring to the history of this remarkable mountain hamlet and the Shawangunk Ridge, and it is a testament to the generations of settlers who lived and worked in this stark and beautiful landscape until the last of them
died over fifty years ago. ~ Bob Anderberg, Open Space Institute
