About the Book
Landscape is a subtle depository for the evidence of great swaths of time. It stretches the mind into both human and geologic frames of reference. Barely hidden in the woods from passing cars and encroaching suburbs, chambers, cairns, foundations, propped boulders and walls combine to form time’s trace, at once both familiar and strange. Who built them? When? And why? Carefully documenting this placed stonework, Hendrickson sees his work as part of a conversation, looking for answers both logically and intuitively. The complex lithic remains of Southeasern Connecticut and Rhode Island become an enigmatic and eye-opening travel through the past, suggesting Native American as well as more expected colonial /agricultural remains are there to be found, hidden in plain sight.
