New Stoddard exhibit shows 19th century travel
GLENS FALLS, N.Y.
A new exhibit set to open in the Stoddard Gallery at the Chapman Museum features images of horse-drawn carriages filled with tourists, steamboats loading passengers to explore remote lakes, and train cars carrying businessmen to their destinations.
“Riding in Style” will open on Tuesday, April 2 and runs through June 16. The photographs in this exhibit offer a glimpse at how individuals and families navigated the southern Adirondack region at the end of the 19th century. Travel looked quite different in Stoddard’s lifetime.
In contrast with today’s rows of seating, “the passengers of steamboats and train cars enjoyed luxurious travel accommodations,” curator Maureen Folk explained.
Stoddard began his career in photography after moving to Glens Falls in the mid-1860s, capturing hometown and wilderness scenes across the Adirondacks.
Saratoga book fest to host ‘Masters of the Air’ autho
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.
The Friends of the Saratoga Springs Public Library’s Saratoga Book Festival, in partnership with Literary Arts@SPAC and the Saratoga County Veterans Peer Connection program, will present “Masters of the Air: An Evening with Donald L. Miller,” the historian and bestselling author of “Masters of the Air: America’s Bomber Boys Who Fought the Air War Against Nazi Germany,” at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 30, at the Spa Little Theater.
The inspiration for the Apple TV streaming series “Masters of the Air,” the book tells the gripping story of the American Eighth Air Force in World War II and the young pilots who flew the bombers that helped beat the Nazis and liberate Europe. The series is produced by Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg, the legendary pair behind “Band of Brothers” and “The Pacific.”
Tickets and copies of the book are available at saratogabookfestival.org.
