Description
Discover the lively and lesser-known history of the Green Mountain State—illustrations included.
Vermont’s history is marked by fierce independence, generosity of spirit—and plenty of quirky characters and colorful events that have occurred among its steep slopes and fertile valleys. In this lively book, you can:
Meet the widow who outwitted Tories and may have spied for the Green Mountain BoysEncounter the family who gained a national following by summoning spiritsDiscover why one governor opposed women's suffrage and how that may have involved spirits of another sortVisit an island retreat where Harpo Marx cheated at croquet and satirist Dorothy Parker wore nothing but a garden hat
Historian Mark Bushnell offers a glimpse of the Green Mountain State rarely seen—along with photos and illustrations.
