Morton Memorial Library & Community House celebrates Cynthia Owen Philip's new book:

Rhinecliff

A Hudson River History

The Tangled Tale of Rhinebeck's Waterfront

Book launch, talk, and signing

 

Book sale proceeds benefit Morton Memorial Library & Community Center

 

 

The complex, colorful history of the riverfront hamlet of Rhinecliff is hidden no longer, thanks to Cynthia Philip s lucid, compelling account of this centuries-old community a place that is so much more than an Amtrak stop and a stepchild to Rhinebeck. Here is the thoroughly researched, fluently written story of strong individuals and national change viewed in the intimate context of a Hudson Valley hamlet. This richly illustrated book is a gem.

--John Winthrop Aldrich, New York State Deputy Commissioner for Historic Preservation
