Fort Trumbull
- Item #: 233
From its earliest days as a defense against British tyranny to its later role as a hub for military scientific advancements, Fort Trumbull has had an important role in protecting the American way of life. Through the years the fort has experienced alternate periods of frenzied activity and profound neglect. But, like a phoenix, it has risen from its own ashes and now, as one of the State's flagship parks, it has been restored to the glory of its former self. This small but fascinating book documents the history of the site, the armaments it has embraced and the foes it prepared against. Many photographs, timelines and drawings. 54 pages.
