Rare film and still photographs support fascinating interviews with Vermonters who can remember when steamboats crossed Lake Champlain, the general store was the center of village life, and the county fair was the big event of the year. Meet Robert Frost, and visit Calvin Coolidge's birthplace. Listen to Vermonters reminisce about the heyday of rum running, life in the grand hotels, and the nation's first ski tow. A highlight is the 1930s tourism film Seeing Vermont with Dot and Glen and interviews with its stars, now in their eighties.
