New York State

New York may conjure up images of impossibly tall rising metal skyscrapers, but the state is so much more than that. North of the heavy metropolitan sprawl lies a lush, mountainous region famous for its colorful fall foliage. To the east, Long Island families raise their children among gridded street plans.

Starting at Montauk Point and driving along the Thruway, you'll cross a diverse land filled with suburban communities, high-rise cities, and rural farmlands. You'll find the home to a hard-working people, proud of their apple orchards, vineyards, and dairy farms. 

This is a 96-page, full-color photographic tribute to the Empire State. From the Hudson River Valley to Niagara Falls, explore the wondrous, magnificent state of New York.
