The Erie Canal: Great Destinations

Deborah Williams

Exploring New York’s Great Canals:
Includes Oswego, Cayuga-Seneca, and Champlain Canals

Celebrated in art, literature, and song, the Erie Canal helped to establish an American identity. Today that 19th-century wonder has been rediscovered and re-energized. The Erie Canal and the three connecting canals have been declared a National Heritage Corridor that encompasses some 230 canal communities. Whether cruising on one of the tour boats, paddling in a rental kayak or canoe, biking the many pathways and trails along the canal, or just sightseeing, no visitor can be without this one and only complete guidebook.

Deborah Williams is the author of several guides and has been a contributor to publications across the U.S. and Canada. A recipient of the Society of American Travel Writers Lowell Thomas Gold Award, Williams lives in Holland, NY.
