Covered Bridges of New England It is a very good book with nice illustrations of many of thel covered bridges.Gives good information on how to locate the actual bridges. While it may be fun to find these bridges by just driving in the area it is a lot nicer, for me, to have more concise information as to where they are located. You can drive many miles and not find one even though you are in the general area.. "Historical postcards" according to B. H. Staples. My grandson is interested in poatcards of covered bridges so I bought this for him as a Christmas gift. He was delighted with it. The pictures are excellent and has many bridges with which we are familiar having lived in New England for most of our lives.
