Creating Connecticut: Critical Moments That Shaped a Great State - Walter W. Woodward

Detalii:

nConnecticut State Historian Walter Woodward helps us understand how people and events in Connecticuts past played crucial roles in forming the culture and character of Connecticut today. Woodward, a gifted story-teller, brings the history we thought we knew to life in new ways, from the nearly forgotten early presence of the Dutch, to the time when Connecticut was New Englands fiercest prosecutor of witches, the decades when Nutmeggers were rapidly leaving the state, and the years when Irish immigrants were hurrying into it. Whether its his investigation into the unusually rough justice meted out to Revolutionary War hero Nathan Hale, or a peek into Mark Twains smoking habits, Creating Connecticut will leave you thinking about our states past--and its future--in a whole new way.
