Sand Lake Revisited

Images of America: New York

by Mary D. French, Andrew St. J. Mace, Sand Lake Historical Society

Sand Lake Revisited provides a fresh perspective on the history of an eastern New York State township, located just south of Troy and east of Albany. It features an outpouring of vintage images and stories that have come to light since the first photographic history of Sand Lake was published. Pictured are the beach that was known as Upstate Coney Island, lovely tourist lodgings adjacent to the town’s seven lakes, long johns manufactured at Faith Mills, and a hometown Vietnam War hero who saved the lives of 14 men.
