Southport: The Architectural Legacy of a Connecticut Village

Southport, Connecticut is one of New En­gland's most beautiful villages, a place where the legacy of the past is vividly pre­served in its historic residences, churches and civic buildings. A walk along the wind­ing lanes and roads of this hamlet takes you through nearly three centuries of America's architectural heritage. Southport, a book that has been decades in the making, is the landmark publication by The Southport Conservancy about the residents, builders and architects who created this seaport vil­lage. It is brilliantly illustrated with contem­porary and historic maps, prints and photographs-many never published before-and provides an invaluable re­membrance for residents, friends, visitors and scholars.
