Castler’s Market in Amsterdam
An Amsterdam native who went on to be a patent attorney has contributed recollections of the former Castler’s Market from the days when the store was at 113 East Main Street.
Friday, July 28, 2023-Episode 485-On the road to our 500th episode. Larry Gooley wrote the history of Adirondack serial killer Robert Garrow. Gooley was interviewed in March 2015 on Episode 49 of The Historians Podcast.
In the summer of 1973, a serial killer's rampage in the Adirondack Mountains of northern New York State changed the region forever. Innocent visitors and campers were brutally knifed to death, terrifying thousands of residents and vacationers. A peaceful part of America was lost, as people armed themselves and locked their doors, living and sleeping in fear. It was a reign of terror the likes of which the mountains had never seen. And it was all the vile handiwork of one very troubled, dangerous man: Robert Francis Garrow. But there is much more to Garrow's story than a series of murders.
