He is the author of Hidden History of Vermont and Discover Vermont! The Vermont Life Guide to Exploring Our Rural Landscape, and was part of writing teams that wrote books about Lake Champlain and Vermont's bicentennial, and a biography of Howard Dean. He lives in Middlesex, Vermont, with his wife, Susan Clark, and son, Harrison.
