Excerpt from A Complete History of Lake George: Embracing a Great Variety of Information and Compiled With an Esepecial Reference to Meet the Wants of the Travelling Community; Intended as a Descriptive Guide; Together With a Complete History and Present Appearance of Ticonderoga In submitting this little volume to the consideration of an intelligent public, I trust I have made such a presentation as will meet the approbation of all those who indulgently peruse its pages. The design of this little work, is to present to the reader, and to convey as accurately as possible, a full and complete history of Lake George; embracing every possible object of interest connected with its history, its islands, mountains, and legendary associations; together with the graver details of history. In fact, every thing which I judged as likely to enhance the interest of its pages. Our knowledge of the past, is necessarily derived from the information of others; and while I have been benefited by their researches, I deem it but an act of courtesy to acknowledge the obligation, which I believe I have invariably done.

Discover lost history in the dark waters of Lake George. Lake George is bustling with boaters, swimmers, fishermen and many others, enjoying its scenic, quintessentially Adirondack shores. But the depths below hide a whole other world--one of shipwrecks and lost history. Entombed are remnants of Lake George's important naval heritage, such as the legendary Land Tortoise radeau, which sank in 1758. Other wrecks include the steam yacht Ellide and the first famed Minne-Ha-Ha. These waters hold secrets, too, like the explanation behind the 1926 disappearance of two hunters. After years of exploration across the lake's bottomlands, underwater archaeologist Joseph W. Zarzynski and archeological diver Bob Benway present the most intriguing discoveries among more than two hundred known shipwreck sites.

Excerpt from Lake George in History New York in time became an English province and these fierce warriors were the only barrier be tween the English and the French, who vied with each other in seeking their trade. North America had ceased to be the resort of romantic soldiers seeking the gateway to an Old World in the New, and had fallen to the lot of shrewd traders and hardy pioneers. Canada and New York both aspired to be the buyers and sellers of the rich furs of the North west, and both claimed to own the Iroquois country from Lake George to Lake Erie.
