Balsam Boughs: Being Adirondack and Other Stories is a collection of short stories written by Archibald Campbell Knowles and published in 1893. The stories are set in the Adirondack Mountains of New York and explore the beauty and wilderness of the region. The collection includes stories of hunting and fishing, camping and hiking, and encounters with wild animals. The characters in the stories are often rugged outdoorsmen who find themselves in dangerous situations, but they also appreciate the natural world and the peace and solitude it can provide. Knowles' writing style is descriptive and evocative, bringing the Adirondack wilderness to life on the page. Balsam Boughs is a classic work of American nature writing and an important contribution to the literary history of the Adirondacks.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
