Connecticut Icons by Charles Monagan
This book is a compilation of one-page pieces done for "Connecticut Magazine." Nothing particularly ambitious here; just small essays on certain things associated with Connecticut. The choices are eclectic: they range from hot lobster roll, steamed cheeseburgers and white clam pizza to the Travelers Tower, Heublein Tower, Merritt Parkway, the USS Nautilus, the Charles W. Morgan...and so forth. Strictly for Connecticut fanciers. I'm a native, so I thoroughly enjoyed the book!
