"During the nineteenth and the early part of the twentieth centuries, New England's archives record that nearly one thousand covered bridges were erected. However, the ravages of time, storms, floods, neglect, and vandals have reduced the remaining historic, authentic covered bridges to fewer than two hundred. While the majority of these bridges are in the states of Vermont and New Hampshire, wonderful examples of covered bridges can be found in all six of the New England states." "The Evanses provide, for each of the 206 bridges in this book, the name of the bridge, its location, specific directions to the bridge, its year of construction, its truss design, and the name of the waterway it crosses. Additional information includes whether the bridge is in use, its number of spans, its length and width, its condition, number, national register data, and anecdotal material. A general introduction and short glossary of covered-bridge terminology are also included."--BOOK JACKET.
