picturesque ulster

This is a period publication digitized for the CD-based collection “The Essential Saugerties" produced in 2009.

As with the 1911 Centennial program and The Pearl also here, the original is from the personal research materials of Saugerties town historian Audrey Klinkenberg. It is from an original section 8, separately covered publication, marked with pages 255 to 286, making it the final section of the full Picturesque Ulster where all eight sections were bound together to make the complete volume.

The first three pages are taken from the introduction of the 1968 full book reproduction by Hope Farm Press. This was written by the famous Woodstock historian Alf Evers. It is added to this digital publication because they best describe this work, a product of a time when photography was an art form and the photographer's subject was a statement of artistic interest.
