Overview


Brilliant afternoons awash in sunshine . . . health, history, and horses . . . this is the experience Saratoga Springs spreads out for visitors, year after golden year.

Overview


Brilliant afternoons awash in sunshine . . . health, history, and horses . . . this is the experience Saratoga Springs spreads out for visitors, year after golden year. From the long distant past, the powerful waters from deep in the earth made this place a wellspring of the healing arts. The allure of meeting in the healthy country environment brought society first from the eastern cities and then from all points of the globe. Society itself became an object for summer entertainment, and connecting with living history came to be a recreational pursuit. Nestled in the foothills of the Adirondacks, Saratoga Springs, across two centuries, has been the midsummer mecca. There is more to Saratoga Springs. While the Spa City opens its arms to all travelers, along with the charms there stands a robust, cheerful, and stalwart core of residents who have over the years transformed a northern wilderness into an oasis of leisure and elegance. Behind the grand hotels of Broadway and America's Monte Carlo are the mansions of Union Avenue and Circular Street, the winter play, and the personalities shaping a place of character, comfort, and culture. Saratoga Springs: A Historical Portrait is their story--the small town at the heart of the City in the Country.

Meet the Author


Timothy A. Holmes is studying Saratoga Springs with a fresh eye, following ancestors in the area after a lapse of several generations. His career as a writer has spanned historic artifacts, counterfeit detection, civic and topical issues. He is a member of many local organizations with interests in history, economic revival, and tourism.

Martha Stonequist was a Peace Corps volunteer in Ethiopia, a music therapist, and a college teacher before returning to her hometown of Saratoga Springs, where she became city historian and an archivist in 1987.
