Off the Leash: Subversive Journeys Around Vermont
Source: Amazon
Author: Helen Husher
State: VT
- "Husher is not your usual travel writer. Instead, she looks beyond typical tourist attractions and sees interest in all sorts of off-the-beaten-path places. Although Vermont is full of historical sites, Husher seems to appreciate settings with a more subtle, perhaps even more profound, resonance. Her journeys take readers to the Donohue Sea Caves near Burlington, to fireworks displays in Randolph, and to Lake Champlain, where sightings of a water monster engage the imaginations of many of the folks who venture there." --Booklist (1999)
