BOOK LAYOUT: Not everyone wants to see all the various categories of things offered and thus, the author has separated this book into chapters that should help a visitor find specific attractions. Example: If you are looking for vineyards, then Chapter # 18 is for you, but if you were looking for a place to RV, then Chapter # 15 would be the place. The TOC is your key to finding what you wish, and the Index will allow you to narrow your search to specific locations. ADVERTISING: There are many websites on the Internet that provide a look at all that the Hudson Valley has to offer, but most only have a few of the attractions, and these are the attractions that paid to be on each website, or are used as 'bait' to attract the viewer to other advertising. This touring guide to the Hudson Valley may be the most complete guide you will ever find as it does NOT depend on advertisers, and contains no paid advertising. AUTHOR'S GOAL: The author's prime goal is to introduce you to the abundant opportunities to visit and learn about in one of the more exciting locations in our history, a history that dates back hundreds of years. RECREATIONAL OPPERTUNITIES: The touring guide also presents to the reader the dozens of outdoor recreational opportunities for skiing, hiking, swimming, boating, fishing, camping, and RV camping by providing names and addresses with GPS location of places to seek. NAPA VALLEY EAST: For those that like to party, the author includes the Hudson Valley vineyards and wineries that have become an east coast challenge to California's Napa Valley. ADDRESSES & GPS: Unlike many books that only provide a name or a name and address, this manual provides the name, address, and the GPS to use on mapping applications like GOOGLE MAPS(TM) COUNTY & TOWN LISTING: The Appendix has a listing of the counties and the towns that are in each so that if you want to search by a specific county, you can. TIME: The author provides a short description of each attraction and suggest the amount of time it will take to see that attraction; this valuable attribute will help you plan your day's trips so you have time to see what you want, time for restroom breaks, and time for meals. AUTHOR'S VIEWS: William (Bill) C. McElroy lived in the Hudson Valley from 1944 to 1956, and again off an on in the 1959 to 1980 era. His parents lived there for decades until the 2010 period; he and his parents frequently visited the various historic, nature made, and man-made attractions. His knowledge of the area includes personal history of many of the attractions and how each has changed over the decades. As an example how Gertie's Nose was named, and how the name was eventually changed to the Gunks a popular mountain climbing spot.

"Depend upon it, God's work done in God's way will never lack God's supplies." - Hudson Taylor"Hudson Taylor was ...one of the greatest missionaries of all time, and... one of the four or five most influential foreigners who came to China in the nineteenth century for any purpose..." - Kenneth Scott Latourette (Author, A History of the Expansion of Christianity)"No other missionary since the Apostle Paul has had a wider vision and has carried out a more systematized plan of evangelizing a broad geographical area than Hudson Taylor." - Ruth Tucker (author of From Jerusalem to Irian Jaya: A Biographical History of Christian Missions.)A single sentence in 1869 transformed Hudson Taylor's life and consequently the lives of hundreds of people in England and thousands of Chinese converts. After his experience he exclaimed "Oh, Mr Judd, God has made me a new man God has made me a new man "Hudson Taylor's spiritual secret was the realization of what it meant to be in union with Christ: daily, even hourly, resting in his presence provided seemingly inexhaustible joy, peace, and energy. These were obvious to those who observed him in his strenuous life of prodigious missionary work. His colleague Charles Judd recorded, "He was a joyous man now, a bright happy Christian. He had been a toiling, burdened one before, with latterly not much rest of soul. ... Whenever he spoke in meetings after that, a new power seemed to flow from him, and in the practical things of life, a new peace possessed him. Troubles did not worry him as before. He cast everything on God in a new way... Instead of working late at night, he began to go to bed earlier, rising at 5 A.M. to give time to Bible study and prayer.H. B. Macartney observes, "Here was the real thing ... a man almost sixty years of age, bearing tremendous burdens, yet absolutely calm and untroubled."His phenomenal energy is attested to by the growth of the China Inland Mission, which he founded. At the time of his death, it had 825 missionaries in over 300 mission stations spread over all eighteen provinces of China. Their converts accounted for a quarter of all Christians in China. Hudson Taylor never solicited funds, and he suffered from personal and family ill-health, as well as frequent violence towards Christians in China.While many other Christians, both famous and unknown, have discovered the secret of a changed life, this book is perhaps the best exposition of a life-changing Christian epiphany, and the resulting transformation. Dr. and Mrs. Howard Taylor, Hudson Taylor's son and daughter-in-law, both of whom lived and worked with Hudson Taylor, have carefully pieced together the story from personal correspondence from and about Hudson Taylor. Numerous Christians, such as Jack Miller, founder of World Harvest Mission, continue to credit this book with transforming their lives far beyond what they had imagined possible. Hudson Taylor's Spiritual Secret is essential reading for any Christian wishing to deepen their faith.About the Authors: Dr. Frederick Howard Taylor was Hudson Taylor's son. He was a medical doctor as well as a missionary to China. His wife Geraldine Taylor (Mrs. Howard Taylor) was missionary, but she also had a love of writing, and wrote numerous biographies of missionaries, including one of "Borden of Yale."

Since the very first issue of the Hudson Valley Style Magazine, we wondered what this seemingly local concept means for the rest of the World. In the Winter 2019 issue, we are not only traveling to discover Modern Rustic Style on the warm and sunny Caribbean Islands with best selling author Mario Molinari. We are also seeing the proof of the fact that concepts of sustainable and socially responsible design are universal for all parts of the Globe, especially those that are affected by climate change.Humans are very resilient creatures and it shows in our ability to adapt, rebuild and take our ideas to the new heights while improving and moving forward to a better and more sustainable future.Executive Editor, Maxwell L.
