Overview
Take a journey to Eastern Connecticut, where remnants of colonial homesteads mingle with the crumbling towers of once-thriving mills and factories. This book shines a light on the abandoned history of a fascinating region of the Nutmeg State known as the Last Green Valley. Also referred to as the Quiet Corner, its quaint villages and idyllic views are wrapped within the only remaining swath of dark night sky that exists amid the coastal sprawl from Boston to Washington, D.C. Venture down scenic byways to discover bucolic New England landscapes dotted with antique houses and farms slowly fading into decay, then journey to picturesque towns where industrial ghosts rise like war-torn ruins. Along the way, lonely backroads and wooded trails lead to mysterious structures and rustic burying grounds steeped in local lore. Through intriguing narratives and haunting photographs of places lost in time, Abandoned Eastern Connecticut: Echoes of the Last Green Valley draws you closer to the vanishing beauty of the Quiet Corner to reveal a past worth remembering.
