Robert Taylor's Saranac is a beautifully written and evocative novel of the titular Upstate New York town and its people. The book tells the story of Jacob Hunt, a young doctor who moves to Saranac in the early 20th century to practice medicine and falls in love with the town and its people. Saranac is a peaceful and idyllic place, but it is also a place where the past hangs heavy, and the residents are haunted by the memories of the tuberculosis epidemic and the Civil War. The story of Jacob and Saranac is a tragic one, but it is also a story of hope and reconciliation.; 8vo; $7.00.
