Hidden History of Connecticut

Connecticut's history is full of engaging and fascinating stories, rocks that are national monuments, the "people's sculptor," football players on chapel finials, moons on the Travelers calendars, artists Frederic Church and Eric Sloane and even a Thanksgiving Day touch football game with a future president. These are tales from Greenwich to Enfield, from Sharon to Old Lyme and so much in between. Follow along with historian Wilson Faude in this "must-have" Connecticut book as he traverses the state in search of hidden history.

The History Press

From the esteemed collection of the Hartford History Center, Hartford's Historical Society at the Hartford Public Library come over 90 never before published views of Hartford from glass plate negatives of the early 1900s. This record of an era past, when transportation was by horse-drawn wagons and the early automobile, have been joined by award-winning photographer Andy Hart's "today" photographs.
One views familiar scenes and can see what was there before. Historian Wilson H. Faude selected the "then" images, researched and wrote the captions.
Both gentlemen have donated their efforts so all royalties from the book will go to the Hartford History Center, to support its collections and programs. With every book purchased one is helping the center add to its collections and host programs and exhibits that will preserve and share the story of the capital city. This book is for the lifelong Hartford resident and those who have just arrived.
