<description><![CDATA[ (Dec 5, 2012) Andy Flynn visits the Adirondack Museum for a closer look at an early 19th century map of the region. Published in 1818, the map was divided into four sections, including one for the Adirondack North Country region. Governor DeWitt Clinton commissioned state Geographer John Eddy to make the map in order to sketch out the proposed route of the Erie Canal between Lake Erie and the Hudson River. Clinton was largely responsible for the canal, which opened in 1825.
