PermaFrost by Mark Frost

PermaFrost front view

Another collection of articles and commentary about people and places in northern New York, written over a ten-year period.

From 49-year old tavern owner Tony Guglielmi to northern New York’s foremost entrepreneur Charley Wood. From a hunting camp deep in the Adirondacks to the plush new Sagamore Resort in Bolton Landing. From ancient lives expressed on gravestones in a Chestertown cemetery to the contemporary horror of children being stolen by strangers.

Mark Frost details the people, the values and the character of a part of New York State that is little written about, seldom revealed.
