The historic lakeside village of Cazenovia in the scenic Finger
Lakes region is one of the jewels of Central New York, and yet very
few books have told its story. Cazenovia is a town founded by
wealthy men, and much of what has been written about it has focused
on the elite and the grand lakeshore mansions in which they lived.
In contrast, Barnes and Emerson's new book chronicles the story of
everyday Cazenovia: the fascinating people, places, and history of
this 225-year-old community. The Bear Tree and Other Stories from
Cazenovia's History explores the unheralded, inaccurately told, and
long-forgotten tales of the town. Readers will encounter historical
characters such as elephant and lion tamer Lucia Zora Card, "The
Bravest Woman in the World"; educator Susan Blow, "The Mother of
American Kindergarten"; and World War I soldier Cecil Donovan,
whose letters home vividly depicted the experience of war for those
awaiting his return in Cazenovia.
