The Mohawk Valley

I refer to myself as "mystery writer of the Mohawk Valley" because I was born, work, live and play in this region. The Mohawk Valley is right in the center of New York State at the foothills of the Adirondack Mountains. The area is lush with trees, rolling hills, lakes, streams, ponds and babbling brooks. I have traveled many places yet the most beautiful scenery is right here in my backyard. The setting of all my books take place right here in the Mohawk Valley. The area is rich in history from the revolutionary war with the "Battle of Oriskany" to the Erie Canal cutting through Utica to a local television station that started Dick Clark out on his career. Saranac beer is brewed nearby in a family owned brewery and the largest 15K road race in the United States called the "Boilermaker" is run right in the Mohawk Valley. It's a great place to live with clean air, fresh water and very little crime. The schools are great and the food is amazing. Now that you know what the Mohawk Valley is all about, you can see why I praise it and use it as the title of my website.
