Indiana Covered Bridges Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
A symbol of Indiana's past, the covered bridge still evokes feelings of nostalgia, romance, and even mystery. During the 19th century, over 500 of these handsome structures spanned the streams, rivers, and ravines of Indiana. Plagued by floods, fire, storms, neglect, and arson, today fewer than 100 remain. Marsha Williamson Mohr's photographs capture the timeless and simple beauty of these well-traveled structures from around the state, including Parke County―the unofficial covered bridge capital of the world. With 105 color photographs, Indiana's Covered Bridges will appeal to everyone who treasures Indiana's rich architectural heritage.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for someone who loves to travel to see and take photographs of covered bridges. This book is beautifully illustrated but does not give the exact location of the bridges. It tells only the County that they are in. I will probably not purchase more of this author unless she changes her style of writing.
My friend loved this book! The pictures were very sharp and the selection of bridges throughout state were stunning. He told me he will treasure book for years to come.
The book gives a great look at the Covered Bridges in Indiana. Would reccommed to all those interested in Covered Bridges to add to thyeir library.
Covers most but not all of Indiana bridges.Is a list by county so you can tell what is covered and what is not. Pictures throughout the seasons.
