The Connecticut River: Journey Through Time

55m 59s

Carving its way 410 miles through the mountains of Vermont and New Hampshire to the estuary of Long Island Sound, the Connecticut River shaped not only landscapes, but also human lives. This film tells the stories of the people who drew their livelihoods, dreams, and hopes from the river. From their struggles, as much as from the river’s waters, the shape of New England history was formed.
