Civil War Monuments of Connecticut - Second Edition

After the Civil War, Connecticut's cities and towns dedicated 140 monuments to honor the more than 55,000 men who fought in the conflict and the memory of the 5,300 residents who died during their Civil War service. The second edition of Civil War Monuments of Connecticut highlights these granite and bronze tributes to the memory and sacrifice of the state's Civil War veterans and heroes. From Greenwich to Stafford Springs, and from Sharon to Stonington, this illustrated guidebook explores the state's monuments, the artists who created them, and the soldiers they honor.
