About this book
The Finest Square Mile: Mount Jo and Heart Lake by Weber, Sandra. paperback edition. ISBN: 9780935796988.
In the summer of 1877, Miss Josephine Schofield and Mr. Henry Van Hoevenberg fell in love as they climbed to the top of Mount Marcy. Looking from the summit, they selected a spot to build a rustic lodge and proclaimed the land surrounding a little heart-shaped lake "the finest square mile in which to get closest to Nature." Author Sandra Weber depects the ensuing 120 years of romance and death, merriment and bankruptcy, fame and fire at Heart Lake and offers astounding new evidence about Miss Josephine Schofield and her supposed leap at Niagara Falls, This book will delight anyone who has camped at Heart Lake, climbed Mount Jo, visited Adirondack Loj, or chased a legend.
