"Drainage Modifications and Glaciation in the Danbury Region Connecticut" by Ruth Sawyer Harvey, Ph.D., explores how glaciers shaped the rivers and land around Danbury, Connecticut. This early 20th-century scientific study uses fieldwork and data collected between 1907 and 1908 to analyze the connection between glacial activity and the changing river systems in western Connecticut. Readers will learn about the geological background of the Danbury region, with a close examination of rivers like the Rocky River and an analysis of how glacial deposits changed the land and waterways. The bulletin highlights the profound impact of glaciation on the area's geographical features and drainage patterns.
