About this product
Product Information
Long River Winding: Life, Love, and Death along the Connecticut is one traveler's journey of discovery along New England's longest and most significant river -- the Connecticut, which flows from the Canadian border to Long Island Sound. His journey turned up fascinating stories hidden in the landscape, stories of the famous and the infamous from both past and present. These are tales of love and death, saints and scoundrels, wisdom and silliness, secrets and mysteries. Their subjects range from a titled British lady whose spirit still hovers over Old Saybrook after 360 years to a courageous police chief trying to tame a troubled Valley city in 2002. The Connecticut River Valley has long been a watershed of American literature, leaders, and social trends. Did you know that Mark Twain wrote most of his books about the Mississippi River while living near the Connecticut? Or that "the number-one female film star of all time" grew up and retired here? Or that the first submarine was invented and launched here by a strange Yankee genius who later vanished? Or that a deadly witchcraft frenzy swept the area long before the infamous Salem witch trials? With humor, insight, and a sharp eye for unforgettable people and their remarkable stories, the author takes us on a journey along 410 miles of river and four centuries of history. It's an armchair adventure that no American should miss. Book jacket.

- 9***9 (360)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe bible has arrived well before estimated delivery time and other to a little tear in the packaging, in good order. I assumed from the pictures that it came in a box cover, however, it was unboxed when I received it. This isn’t an issue as the leather cover is in lovely condition and has been well looked after. It was sold at a very generous price including shipping. The seller was very helpful and quick to reply to questions and I would recommend them. Thank you

- a***l (338)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseAlthough the description details were misleading, the customer support was rather good. I ordered the 2-volume set of ‘Atlas Shrugged’, but received a single volume. It might not seem like much to others, but it’s a large book and a 2-set volume would have made it easier to read. In addition, poor packaging damaged the DJ. Anyways, after sending firm, yet precise and polite emails, the situation was promptly resolved, hence the positive feedback; and, why I would buy again from the seller. 👍
