Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Litchfield County Sketches Litchfield County bears the same relation to the rest of the State of Connecticut that the Lake region does to Old England. As about Windermere, Grasmere and Ullswater, in famous Westmoreland, poets, preachers and literary men have made their homes, so more and more there is coming to our mountain county this same delightful class of people. From New Haven, Princeton and New York university presidents and professors have turned their faces northward to these delightful hilltops, and here many of them have built their homes. Doctors, lawyers and editors are finding out that the ozone of these hills is better than drugs, and just as good as foreign travel. Henry Clay Trumbull expressed it as his opinion, after careful thought and study, that Litchfield County had produced more distinguished men than any other comity in the United States. Our University Club, born in Norfolk, is one of the most prosperous in the country outside the great cities. The county is also becoming a musical centre through the Litchfield County Choral Union, established and maintained through the generosity of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Stoeckel, of Norfolk.
