The Oswegatchie begins its journey in whitetail forests and ends in Holstein farmlands. It rises deep in spruce woods first ventured into by Native Americans and a handful of Jesuit priests and spills, finally, into the St. Lawrence river. Along its path are 135 miles of navigable waters, tall pine eskers, black flies, bogs, mosquitoes, down-at-the-heels villages, coyotes, the rare moose and wolf, power boats, riverside camps, and kids rope diving into deep black pools. This collection of writings about the Oswegatchie includes essays by Hallie E. Bond, Donald Morris, Maurice Kenny, Christopher Angus, Nina H. Webb, Clarence Petty, Neal Burdick, Dick and Barbara Tiel, Charles Brumley, Mason Smith, Christine Jerome, Michael Kudish, Paul Jamieson and Gary Randorf.
