When its first covered bridge was constructed on the
Ashtabula-Trumbull Turnpike in 1832, Ashtabula County was closer to
frontier than a "new Connecticut." Its rutted roads promised
adventure and suggested prosperity but also great hardship. Covered
bridges, made mostly of local timber, would eventually soften the
brutality of travel, isolation and a well-watered landscape. Their
proliferation and preservation gave Ashtabula County the nickname
"Covered Bridge Capital of the Western Reserve." Admire both famous
and forgotten crossings with Carl E. Feather, who has spent over a
quarter century mired in muddy creek beds, camera in hand, waiting
for the perfect light."
