(4.4 stars; 13 reviews)

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, Iroquois, Huron, and Mohicans; as well as the French and Dutch. (Summary by Roger Melin) (0 hr 12 min)
