Crossing under Cover is a lovingly crafted and detailed profiling of the 24 covered bridges located in the tricounty/state area of Chester County, Pennsylvania; Cecil County, Maryland; and New Castle County, Delaware.

Features:

- a general history of covered bridges, including Pennsylvania's prominence in that history;
- an overview of covered bridge architectural styles;
- a profile of each bridge, including photographs and interesting local facts;
- the legacy and lore of each individual covered bridge and the impact they have on their communities and local history;
- a map and detailed driving tour that readers can follow to visit all the bridges; and
- the architectural style of each bridge.

This is the only book to feature covered bridges of three contiguous states, and the latest book in decades to focus on covered bridges of Chester County.
