Download or read book Antiquity s Covered Bridge written by Dorine Emery and published by Dorrance Publishing. This book was released on 2021-12-27 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antiquity's Covered Bridge By: Dorine Emery Dorine Emery is an avid photographer of covered bridges. She began in her local area in New Jersey but knew the LC Beavens bridge in New Milford, Pennsylvania, was a must-see. It was Emery’s fascination with the mountain that rises to the east of Mylert Creek and the bridge she knew was there that led her to Antiquity’s Covered Bridge. History and imagination are woven like the ivy vines on a latticed bridge, facts and fiction which Emery has found on and around the Nevermore area of New Milford. Fiction based on facts, then enhanced by pseudo possibilities might describe mystery within. Not without humor—it is Nevermore who owns Antiquity’s bridge, nor without tragedy—that of Janie’s sorrow over her dear Andrew and their baby, Cheri, Antiquity’s Covered Bridge is a story to be pondered at a moderate pace.
