Publications

Hawk’s Nest: Newspaper History of the Road Written by Town of Deerpark Historian Norma Schadt Published by The 1863 Schoolhouse Press 150 pages, soft-cover, illustrated. Reduced Price: $10. Add $2.50 for shipping and handling.

“Hawk’s Nest” includes a compilation of newspaper articles dating back to the mid-1800s which tell the story of this 1.5-mile stretch of Route 97 from its time as a single-lane dirt track between Sparrowbush and Mongaup, to the official completion of this engineering marvel on Aug. 30, 1939, to its 2002 dedication as an important feature of the Upper Delaware Scenic Byway. Many of the photos accompanying the articles have never appeared in print. The Hawk’s Nest has been featured in national television commercials and on the cover of magazines for the thrilling ride and sweeping vistas offered by its twisting curves situated between a rock cliff and the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River. Thousands of visitors stop at the pull-offs to enjoy the view throughout the year, with each season exhibiting its own individual character and beauty.

Perseverance & Vigilance: The History of the Old Decker Stone House Written by Minisink Valley Historical Society Executive Director Peter Osborne Published by Minisink Press 224 pages, soft-cover, 84 illustrations. Cost $19.95. Add $4.80 for shipping and handling.

“Perseverance & Vigilance” traces the history of the 1793 Fort Decker building from early in the Revolutionary War, to the raids of the infamous Mohawk warrior-statesman Joseph Brant, to the era of the Delaware and Hudson Canal, when the stone structure served as a hotel for the canal’s founders and engineers. It also includes genealogies of people who have lived in and owned the building over the last 200 years, and speculates on the identity of the mysterious spirit that regularly turns on the building’s lights. Today, the Fort Decker building located at 127 West Main St. in Port Jervis is operated by the Minisink Valley Historical Society as a museum of history.
