Product Description
by Walter W. Woodward (Author)
Walt 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 England's fiercest prosecutor of witches, the decades when Nutmegger were rapidly leaving the state, and the years when Irish immigrants were hurrying into it. Creating Connecticut will leave you thinking about our state's past--and its future--in a whole new way.
