Book excerpt: Excerpt from Crossing the Connecticut: An Account of the Various Public Crossing of the Connecticut River at Hartford Since the Earliest Times, Together With a Full Description of Hartford Bridge The cut of the new bridge and western approach shown in the colored frontispiece is a close approximation to the work as it will appear when completed. The tunnelling or covering of the railroad tracks for a short distance north and south of the west end of the bridge is a recent change in the plans, to protect the structure from the blighting effects of smoke from locomotives. The draw indicated in the picture has been left there to show the original design that was adopted, and to show also why the western anchor pier was placed where it is, when it should have been the third pier from the west end, to correspond with its companion - the third pier from the east end, as the first plans show. This double or "anchor" pier was transferred to the west end of the bridge in order to more solidly abut and support the east end of the draw; and when permission was finally obtained from the United States Government to build the bridge without a draw, the work had so far proceeded that this double pier could not be transferred back again to its originally designed location.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stories of New England soldiers who perished in this bloody battle, based on their diaries and letters. The Battle of Antietam, in September 1862, was the single bloodiest day of the Civil War. In the intense conflict and its aftermath across the farm fields and woodlots near Sharpsburg, Maryland, more than two hundred men from Connecticut died. Their grave sites are scattered throughout the Nutmeg State, from Willington to Madison and Brooklyn to Bristol. Here, author John Banks chronicles their mostly forgotten stories using diaries, pension records, and soldiers’ letters. Learn of Henry Adams, a twenty-two-year-old private from East Windsor who lay incapacitated in a cornfield for nearly two days before he was found; Private Horace Lay of Hartford, who died with his wife by his side in a small church that served as a hospital after the battle; and Captain Frederick Barber of Manchester, who survived a field operation only to die days later. This book tells the stories of these and many more brave Yankees who fought in the fields of Antietam. Includes photos
