The WPA Guide to Vermont
Author: Federal Writers' Project
Publisher: Trinity University Press
ISBN: 1595342435
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 543
Book Description
During the 1930s in the United States, the Works Progress Administration developed the Federal Writers’ Project to support writers and artists while making a national effort to document the country’s shared history and culture. The American Guide series consists of individual guides to each of the states. Little-known authors—many of whom would later become celebrated literary figures—were commissioned to write these important books. John Steinbeck, Saul Bellow, Zora Neale Hurston, and Ralph Ellison are among the more than 6,000 writers, editors, historians, and researchers who documented this celebration of local histories. Photographs, drawings, driving tours, detailed descriptions of towns, and rich cultural details exhibit each state’s unique flavor. The WPA Guide to Vermont takes the reader across the Green Mountain State from Lake Champlain to its namesake mountain range with chapters detailing the state’s significant literature, architecture, history and transportation. Dorothy Canfield Fisher, a popular author at the time of the guide’s initial publication, adds distinction to the volume with an essay entitled “Vermonters” which expounds on the unique spirit of the people of Vermont.

Vermont: A History
Author: Charles T. Morrissey
Publisher: W. W. Norton & Company
ISBN: 0393302237
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
For many Americans, Vermont still seems what the United States at least in myth once was--a bucolic landscape of wooded hills, neat farms, and handsome villages--before modern forces transformed our agrarian nation into an urban-industrial giant. Vermonters have long been respected as sturdy Americans who prize hard work, honest dealing, town-meeting government, and dry humor. Their way of life, along with the beauty of their Green Mountains and quiet valleys, remains immensely attractive to natives and newcomers who seek beauty and the satisfaction of self-sufficiency in a natural environment where rocky soil and a varied climate have always compelled respect.
