| Publisher Description: For the past 30 plus years, in August, the Lancaster Bicycle Club sponsors a "Covered Bridge Century" ride, offering 100, 50, and 25 kilometer rides including six covered bridges. The 219 vibrant color photographs show the bridges in every season and are arranged in five groups, creating five separate regional tours. Providing GPS coordinates with each bridge discussed and displayed makes every bridge easy to find using a GPS satellite navigation device. If you prefer you may also use a local tour map of course. These bridges are architectural treasures spanning the rivers and streams of Lancaster County, a scenic landscape dotted with pristine Amish farms. This book will be treasured by all who enjoy the beauty of rural America and her historic covered bridges. |
