Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From the Back Cover
Tired of the same old tourist traps? Take the road less traveled and uncover the hidden attractions, unique finds, and unusual locales other guidebooks just don’t offer. Off the Beaten Path® features the things you’d want to see—if only you knew about them! From the best in local dining to quirky cultural tidbits, you’ll say over and over again: “I didn’t know that!”
Discover a different side of the Nutmeg State. Explore the beginnings of the American Impressionist art movement with a drive along the Connecticut Art Trail; sample five different varieties of goulash (including authentic Transylvanian!) at The Goulash Place in Danbury; or answer the siren call of the bagpipes at the Annual Scottish Festival in Goshen. So if you’ve “been there, done that” one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
