VALATIE: The Forgotten History
A Rural Mill Village, Microcosm of America
By Dominick C. Lizzi
The iconic history of the village of Valatie unfolds in this magnificent book by Valatie village historian Dominick Lizzi. Complete with numerous maps and photos, many never before published, this book chronicles the life and times of our small New York village—from the earliest native settlements to the dawn of the 21st century.
"Valatie has a fascinating history starting with Native Americans, traders, mill owners, workers, and cotton manufacturers."
—Paul Huey, archaeologist, New York State Historic Preservation Office
