Possessions : The History and Uses of Haunting in the Hudson Valley PDF
by Judith Richardson
- Information
Description
The cultural landscape of the Hudson River Valley is full of ghosts—ghosts of Native Americans and Dutch colonists, of Revolutionary War soldiers and spies, of presidents, slaves, priests, and laborers.
This book asks why this region became the locus for so many ghostly tales, and shows how the hauntings came to operate as a form of social memory.
