Osborne, Peter: - Historian Peter Osborne is the author of many works of regional history and serves as the full-time director of the Minisink Valley Historical Society in Port Jervis, New York. For High Point State Park and the Civilian Conservation Corps, he has selected about two hundred images, some that have been preserved by High Point State Park and former Civilian Conservation Corps enrollees, and some from private collections. Using these unique photographs, many published here for the first time, he has compiled a fascinating history of the park and the work of the CCC boys.
