The Short Season of Sharon Springs: Perspectives on Another New York

If travelers along Route 20 in east-central New York notice the village of Sharon Springs at all, it is only when they are caught in the speed trap located halfway down the hill leading to the town's single traffic light.

great history of a unique new york town

Beautifully illustrated and well written

This book documents the rise and fall of this once flourishing spa resort village. Although much has changed since the book was written in the early 1980's, it summarizes and reflects the history of the village at the time. There is a new book published by the Sharon Historical Society called, "Reflections on Sharon", a pictorial history from 1797-1997 which details 200 years of the town & village. It also documents the more recent history through 1997 and illustrates Sharon's current push towards revitalization with the infusion of new residents and businesses.Only 1000 books were printed and they are already almost sold out.
