2017 | Art, Photography & Fashion

The Connecticut River from the Air is a collection of these extraordinary images alongside essays by historian Jerry Roberts. The book provides an intimate perspective following New England's greatest river on its 410-mile journey from its source on the Canadian border to Long Island Sound, where its waters mingle with the salty brine of the Atlantic Ocean. Amazing and wonderful sights appear along the River that can only be seen and appreciated from small, low-flying aircraft. Beauty and wonder can be found in historic canals and bridges as well as twists and bends in the River, ship wrecks, rock formations, and even sand patterns on the River bottom. From naturally formed ox-bows to cornfield mazes, hidden valleys, quaint villages and sweeping vistas, these Wonders of the River are the true treasures of this amazing waterway and its surrounding landscapes.
