Book The Connecticut River

Download or read book The Connecticut River written by Al Braden and published by Wesleyan University Press. This book was released on 2010-03-01 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Breathtaking photographs of one of America's most picturesque and historic rivers The photographs in The Connecticut River follow this major waterway for 410 miles, from its origin near the Canadian border to its wide mouth on Long Island Sound, giving us a vivid portrait of a living artery of the New England landscape. Author and photographer Al Braden opens the book with an essay introducing important aspects of the river, and then presents 136 full-page color photos, ranging from close-ups to dramatic aerials, to reveal the river as few people are privileged to experience it. Readers will see and learn about the landscape, history, development, conservation, geologic formations, wildlife, flora, and, of course, the moods of the water, sky, and riverbank. Informative captions provide a wealth of information about the images, from pristine misted mornings to rich valley farmlands and modern hydroelectric turbines. Together, the images and text provide a poignant look at the river and document its centrality to the development of the unique character of New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, and Connecticut. Includes select bibliography and list of resources.

  • Publisher : Arcadia Publishing
  • Release : 2003-08-01
  • ISBN : 9780738513157
  • Pages : 132 pages

Download or read book Old Lyme Lyme and Hadlyme written by Kathryn Burton and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2003-08-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Where the Connecticut River empties into Long Island Sound, a community that eventually became known as Lyme was settled in 1639. The community ran up the eastern riverbank to what is now East Haddam, along the Sound to Niantic, and into parts of Salem. In time, Lyme was divided into small towns and villages: Old Lyme, Lyme, Hadlyme, Hamburg, Sterling City, South Lyme, and the coastal communities. Old Lyme, Lyme, and Hadlyme is a compelling tribute to an area that is extraordinary in many ways: for its people, many of whom were attorneys, judges, legislators, and governors; for its commerce, which brought ships from up and down the East Coast and as far away as the West Indies; and for its beautiful homes, some of which survive today thanks to a strong preservation ethic.
