The Maine Woods National Park : Landscape, Regional Identity, And The Promise Of New England Geography

Sightseeking : Clues To The Landscape History Of New England

  • Sightseeking : Clues To The Landscape History Of New  England
  • Attribution

    Christopher J. Lenney
  • Publication Details

    Book, University of New Hampshire/University Press of New England, 2003
  • Description

    Through inspired conjecture and methodical fieldwork, Lenney discovered that at least six cultural and material artifacts could be mapped into similar flows and clusters: placenames, boundaries, townplans, roads, houses, and gravestones. The other five cultural markers similarly reveal themselves in a surprising patterning of the New England countryside–in the areas where the connected farmstead dominates, where recessed balconies or twin rearwall chimneys distinguish the scene; By pushing us beyond mere sightseeing to “sightseeking,” Lenney dares to fundamentally alter the way we–old-time Yankee, newcomer, and tourist alike–experience and interpret the New England landscape.
