Book excerpt: Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Litchfield Hills: An Illustrated Work of Litchfield County, in Which the Picturesque Features of Each Town in the County Are Set Forth In the following pages the author has endeavored to write a clear and brief description of the picturesque in each town in the county. "In Litchfield Hills" is not to be considered a historical work, although many interesting points of history are touched upon. As nothing of this character on our county has been placed before the public it is the object of the author to place upon the market a pretty souvenir of "Our Mountain County" at a price within the reach of every one. The writer has personally visited every town and collected the necessary material besides selecting the subjects for illustration. Although the work has involved a large amount of labor and there have been many difficulties to overcome the task has been most fascinating. Much is due to those who have taken an interest in the preparation of this volume, and have aided by valuable suggestions. Many contributions have been made by certain of Litchfield's brightest literary minds which have added much to the value of the work.

Excerpt: ...as a food for infants and invalids. In the early days every farmer raised his own beef and pork, and it was no uncommon thing for the farmer with a large family to "put down" five or six barrels of pork, besides packing or freezing several beeves for home consumption. Beef cattle could be grown and fattened on the hill pastures, and a little late-cut hay or corn fodder would carry them over winter. Improved types of beef cattle, however, were little known until after the first quarter of the last century. Following the introduction of the Devons, soon came fine specimens of the Shorthorns, and later the Herefords, commonly known as the "white faces." These two breeds did much to improve the quality of the beef, and it was no uncommon sight to see large droves of sleek beef cattle being driven from this county to New Haven and Bridgeport for use in these markets, or for shipment to New York. The Durham breed of cattle (later known as Shorthorns) had beef qualities that early led to their use on many farms. It was found, too, that some families or strains of this breed were excellent milkers, especially for the first six months of lactation, and many good dairies of grade Shorthorns were developed in the towns of Goshen, Litchfield, Watertown and Woodbury. The Ayrshires, too, early attracted attention for their heavy milking qualities, and large herds of the grades of these two breeds were early developed in connection with the cheese industry. About the middle of the last century, following the settling of central and northern New York and Ver Do mont, the "droving" (driving) of young cattle from these States each fall became a big business. They were commonly brought to Connecticut as two-yearolds, and by...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Litchfield County Sketches Litchfield County bears the same relation to the rest of the State of Connecticut that the Lake region does to Old England. As about Windermere, Grasmere and Ullswater, in famous Westmoreland, poets, preachers and literary men have made their homes, so more and more there is coming to our mountain county this same delightful class of people. From New Haven, Princeton and New York university presidents and professors have turned their faces northward to these delightful hilltops, and here many of them have built their homes. Doctors, lawyers and editors are finding out that the ozone of these hills is better than drugs, and just as good as foreign travel. Henry Clay Trumbull expressed it as his opinion, after careful thought and study, that Litchfield County had produced more distinguished men than any other comity in the United States. Our University Club, born in Norfolk, is one of the most prosperous in the country outside the great cities. The county is also becoming a musical centre through the Litchfield County Choral Union, established and maintained through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Stoeckel, of Norfolk.

Download or read book The Northern Litchfield Hills written by Betsy McDermott Fecto and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 1996-05-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This wonderful visual history weaves together more than two hundred images with intriguing and informative text to create an immensely enjoyable journey through the history of the northern Litchfield Hills. The Litchfield Hills Region, situated in the northwestern corner of Connecticut, is known for its picture-perfect rolling hills, its traditional farms, and its charming villages. There is a sense of peacefulness and pride here, and yet this idyllic appearance belies a long and fascinating history dating back to the very first years of settlement in America. The Litchfield Hills Region has been home to such legendary figures as Harriet Beecher Stowe, Ethan Allen, and Oliver Wolcott, and in this book the contributions of these historic figures are celebrated alongside those of the ordinary folk of Torrington, Winsted, Litchfield, Kent, Sharon, Lakeville, Salisbury, Cornwall, Canaan, Canton, Collinsville, New Hartford, Riverton-Barkhamsted, Colebrook, and Morris.
