The Coast of New England

The Coast of New England

A Pictorial Tour from Connecticut to Maine

Stan Patey

Imagine sailing harbor by harbor from Greenwich, Connecticut to downeast Maine, with views of the coastline and the offshore islands--and the added advantage of having a bird's eye view of tricky harbor entrances, good anchorages, and shallows and hazards. Besides being a tribute to the beauty of the New England coastline, this artfully produced book is a full-color visual guidebook to the secrets of this storied coastline. The low-altitude aerial photos are keyed to section-opening maps for orientation. In addition, there are beautiful ground-level color photos of the coast's famous sites and hidden charms and lively, informative captions. Here is a book to be treasured, whether you choose to explore by boat, on foot, or by car.
