Download or read book The Traprock Landscapes of New England written by Peter M. LeTourneau and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-03 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stunning photography and fact-filled text reveal new perspectives on southern New England's most unique natural region. A picturesque journey through the traprock highlands from New Haven, Connecticut to Amherst, Massachusetts, this book captures the majesty of wild windswept cliffs, panoramic summit vistas, and intimate details of the natural world through the eyes of an artist and the mind of a scientist. By tracing the influence of natural history on cultural development in the Connecticut Valley, the authors present a compelling argument that the rocky highlands are landscapes of national significance, where the particular combination of geology, geography, water resources, climate, and human settlement fostered vital developments in Early American science, education, agriculture, manufacturing, technology, and the creative arts. Through vibrant color photographs of high alpine crags and lush forests, thundering waterfalls and splashing cascades, and close-up views of the rocks, flowers, and birds, The Traprock Landscapes of New England presents the incomparable beauty of the region as never before. Overflowing with information, long-time fans, first-time visitors, nature lovers, rock climbers, history buffs, land use managers, and many others will find plenty to satisfy in the detailed text and captions, crisp photos, historical images, informative maps, and more. Showcasing popular locales, and revealing “secret spots,” this must-have resource will encourage old friends and newcomers alike to visit the rugged crags once called “the boldest and most beautiful” landscapes in New England.
Download or read book Early Days in the Connecticut Valley Classic Reprint written by Alice M. Walker and published by . This book was released on 2015-08-04 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Early Days in the Connecticut Valley Far up among the hills of northern New Hampshire rises the river called by the primitive dwellers upon its banks, "Quonektacut." Beside its shining waters have been built the many thriving villages and cities, centers of industry, whose wheels and spindles turn, year after year, as they are driven by its ceaseless flow. Although more than two centuries have passed since the Indian built his wigwam and planted his corn where now we see the college and the church, the links of association which bind us to those former days are as enduring as our everlasting hills, and with them will forever serve as a reminder to future generations of the price paid by those old time fathers for the beautiful valley in which their descendants delight to dwell.

Download or read book Windsor written by and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2007 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1633, explorers from Plymouth Bay reported the Windsor area to be a fine place both for plantation and trade, and not long after, several groups of intrepid pilgrims established the first English settlement in Connecticut. The early settlers took advantage of the areas fertile river floodplains, extensive forests, and swift river currents. Windsor has grown from a remote outpost at the confluence of the Farmington and Connecticut Rivers into a thriving agricultural, commercial, and suburban community. Highlighting themes important to Windsors history, this compelling visual survey portrays the traditional landmarks of a New England village: the meetinghouse and common green, field and forest, ferry and mill. It also reveals the faces of past residents engaged in their everyday lives at work and at play, in trouble and in celebration.

Excerpt: ...mountain, and the remainder of the way is accomplished on horseback. Not far from the summit is a spring of excellent water, and also a house for the accommodation of visitors. The view from the summit is similar to that from Mount Mansfield. The hight above the sea is 4,083 feet, and some over 3,800 above Winooski River. The peculiar outline of its summit, which suggests its name, and its comparatively isolated position, make it a conspicuous object for many miles around JONESYILLE. Three miles west of Bolton is Jonesville. East of the station the valley is narrow, and in full view from the cars is a beautiful cascade with a lofty rock near it. This, with the wild scenery, gives the place an unusually picturesque appearance. c RICHMOND. Before Teaching Richmond the valley becomes broader and more fertile. The village lies principally north of the station. Passing westward you cross Clark Bridge over the Winooski, 600 feet long.. VTILLISTON. Passing through Williston, which is an excellent agricultural region, you get good views of Mansfield and Camel's Hump. Here is seen the profile" of old Mansfield, outlined on the sky beyond. West of the station you cross Bradley Bridge, 400 feet long. 9 ESSEX JUNCTION. Here passengers for Burlington change cars, taking the train which runs to that place, eight miles distant. FROM ESSEX JUNCTION TO BURLINGTON. Soon after leaving Essex Junction, the view of Mansfield and Camel's Hump is exceedingly beautiful, and one is greatly impressed with their magnitude and grandeur. Passing from the sandy table lands you enter the more fertile valley of the Winooski River. The scenery along this stream is highly inter esting. The river has made deep gorges through the limestone rock, and as one passes over the...
