    • The New England Coast, spanning Connecticut, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, and Maine, embodies a quintessential American landscape. Its craggy cliffs, shifting dunes, and numerous bays resonate with the echoes of the nation's history. This region is where the drive for independence, "Yankee Ingenuity," and industrial strength first flourished. Through the lens of photographer Carol M. Highsmith, the area's rich history is vividly captured. The journey commences in prosperous Connecticut, featuring Bridgeport and its unique Barnum Museum, alongside the prestigious Yale University. Rhode Island, the smallest state, showcases Gilded Age mansions, including the opulent Breakers in Newport. Massachusetts offers a historical tour through Boston and Plymouth Rock, as well as the exclusive retreats of Martha's Vineyard, Nantucket, and Cape Cod, popular among the affluent. New Hampshire's coastline, though brief at eighteen miles, includes charming Portsmouth with its colonial manors. Maine's coast is renowned for its delicious lobsters and Acadia National Park, one of the nation’s most stunning and visited national treasures. With captivating photographs and informative text, this photographic tour serves as an excellent gift for anyone who has explored or aspires to discover this unique region.
