Publisher's Synopsis
Ashtabula County, Ohio's largest, is a diverse county with natural, historical, structural and strange attractions. This insider guide to the county picks up where the typical travel guides leave off as it delves more deeply into the culture and history of the county rather than being a list of places to spend money. In the Transportation section, each of the county's 19 covered bridges is covered with construction and renovation history as well as trivia. The Historical and Structures sections help readers make connections between events, people and artifacts will telling the county's story in fun, easy-to-digest stories. The Natural Treasures section suggests parks, nature preserves and beaches where the county's natural history can be explored and enjoyed. There is even a chapter on ghost towns and their fascinating history!Illustrated with images from the attractions, this book is a must for both visitors and residents who want to learn more about this popular Lake Erie tourist destination. A companion website, thefeathercottage.com, provides blog entries that further expand upon topics in the book, and The Feather Cottage YouTube Channel showcases films about the entries.
