Reviews
The Bear Tree reads like a page turning novel with romance, danger and twists and turns, proving truth really is stranger than fiction., T his volume of tales of days long past in the village of Cazenovia is reminiscent of Ray Bradbury's Dandelion Wine ., The Bear Tree is a delightful book of small-town yarns knit into beloved legends by generations of residents of Cazenovia, New York. From Indian lovers whose romance ended tragically in a canoe at the bottom of the lake, to the resident lion tamer known as "The Bravest Woman in the World," to the heartrending story of the wanderings of a jilted bride called "Crazy Luce," this volume of tales of days long past in the village of Cazenovia is reminiscent of Ray Bradbury's Dandelion Wine ., This well written book looks at Cazenovia's most interesting and 'juicy' stories, and the origins of the facts and myths that surround them.

Synopsis
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., 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.
