A photographic record of Harrison County’s lost covered bridges

Through Their Eyes gathers historical photographs of four covered bridges that once stood in Harrison County, Kentucky. The collection places these vanished structures within the county’s landscape and history, from Cynthiana’s bridge, associated with a Civil War battle, to the Claysville bridge, which crossed above the Licking River until 1953. By centering images made by earlier photographers, the book preserves visual traces of local landmarks that no longer survive. Its compact, regional focus makes it both a document of changing infrastructure and a window onto the communities and waterways these bridges once connected.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in Kentucky and Harrison County history
  • Photography-book browsers interested in archival regional images
  • Covered-bridge and historic-infrastructure enthusiasts

Book overview

Nestled in the hills of central Kentucky, the countryside of Harrison County was once dotted with covered bridges. Sadly, none of these bridges remain today. The photo collection contained in the pages of this book offers a glimpse into the life span of four of these bridges including Cynthiana's bridge which was a centerpiece in a Civil War battle, to Claysville's bridge that once towered above the Licking River until its fiery end in 1953.The "Through Their Eyes" series celebrates the photographers of yesteryear who captured these structures in their photographs to preserve them for all time.
