Book excerpt: In his memoirs, Craig O. Burt wrote about his experiences and many facets of life in and around Stowe, Vermont from the late 1800's to the 1960's. The course of his life and his position in the community afforded him a unique perspective. As co-owner of the Burt Lumber Company, he knew the countryside intimately. He had an affinity for nature and a reverence for the beauty of his surroundings. His keen powers of observation and description are evident in the narratives of the land, wildlife and weather. The absorbing accounts of the early days of lumbering and the evolution of the electric railroad as well as the details of every day life in Stowe give one a glimpse into a time past.In addition to accounts of the people and places of his time, Burt also gives accounts of the evolution of skiing in Stowe.
Download or read book Stowe written by Wendy Snow Parrish and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How did Stowe become the ski capital of the East? From the beginning, the community of Stowe has made the most of its natural setting-Mount Mansfield, the forests and fields, the clear mountain streams and fine air-to carve out an appealing, enduring, distinctively New England style of life. That appeal is beautifully presented in Images of America: Stowe. This book combines historical images with detailed narrative to document life in rural Stowe from the 1870s through its emergence as an unrivaled tourist and recreation center in the middle of the 20th century. Beyond their own appeal, the images describe how Stowe has managed to change with the times yet maintain its inviting character and amenities. Images of America: Stowe contains scenes from stereo views, photographs, and postcards. It shows the working side of Stowe: industries that involved logging, sawmills, farming, maple sugaring, and tourism. It also shows the more leisurely side of Stowe: the Lake Mansfield Trout Club, the Trapp Family Music Camp, hiking, skiing, Old Home Day parades, and school activities.
