Lake George is a stunning mountain and lake landscape with a magical charm. A visit to the lake in 1791 inspired Thomas Jefferson to write in a letter to his daughter, “Lake George is without comparison, the most beautiful water I ever saw.” Few locations in the world have a beauty as evocative as the “Queen of American Lakes.”In this new edition with all new photographs, award-winning photographer Carl Heilman II has worked to capture the essence of the beauty and features of the lake, as well as the energy of life and activities that make Lake George one of the top tourist destinations in the country. While many visitors only see the lake in the splendor of the summer, Heilman’s photographs offer a look at the wonder and drama of the region throughout the year. The landscape format of the book offers a unique perspective for the 235 standard and panoramic images that portray the dynamic diversity of the region. From the historical re-enactments and winter scenes in Lake George Village to panoramic views of the lake from the ridgeline of the Tongue Mountain Range, this book provides a look at the wonders of Lake George through the eyes of one of the region’s best-known photographers.
