Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Connecticut Off the Beaten Path: A Guide to Unique Places (Paperback)
I bought this for my parents as they had recently moved from California to Conn. They love this book as it has allowed them to find some great bedroom communities nearby.A true review would be from someone who knows the area, but for outsiders this was a great purchase.
