Connecticut offers travelers some of the finest attractions in all of the Northeast—historic homes, fine architecture, village greens, rolling hills, hidden waterfalls, old sea- ports, as well as more scenic backroads, restaurants, and cultural surprises than one person could ever explore in a lifetime, despite the state's small size. Praised by the Hartford Courant as the most comprehensive guide to Connecticut in more than 50 years, this fifth edition of the final word on exploring Connecticut will lead out-of-state travelers and residents alike to all four corners of the Nutmeg State.
