Connecticut has a deep-rooted history, and YI’s Andy Fowler is exploring it in a new series called, “Hidden in the Oak.” The goal: to fill readers with a sense of pride about the state we call home and make the past relevant to today. So far, the series has explored how Nutmeggers impacted the Battle of Gettysburg; the prominent baseball leagues and icons of the sport; a haunted island; CT scientists and the Manhattan Project; the possible first saint from Connecticut; and the Marquis de Lafayette’s tour of the state in the early 1800s.
