Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad

"Bessemer and Lake Erie Railroad"  by Kenneth Springer is an Arcadia publication, much like the Conneaut Lake and Conneaut Lake Park books.

It has 128 pages with tons of train pictures and history, including some trains coming into Conneaut Lake Park and Conneaut Lake.

Conneaut Lake

This book was written by our own Jane Smith and features photographs from both the historical society archives as well as private individuals. Featured are early days – from the Canal Days to boats, hotels, sports, celebrations, people and much more!

Conneaut Lake Park

"Conneaut Lake Park", 128 page book, was published as one of the Images of America series from Arcadia. It has tons of pictures and history.

Conneaut Lake/Exposition Park/Bessemer Railroad

During the early 1900’s, many people rode the Bessemer & Lake Erie Railroad to Exposition Park (later named Conneaut Lake Park).  Each year the railroad would give them a book about Exposition Park which featured unique pictures of Exposition Park and Hotel Conneaut.  Now CLAHS has reprinted two of these books and is offering them for sale. With different pictures and materials, Conneaut Lake/Exposition Park is a great asset for any history or railroad buff!

Erie Extension Canal

Written by CLAHS’s own John Dearing, this book tells of life along the Feeder Canal and its impact on Conneaut Lake.  This well written book has a plastic cover to protect the pages and provides deep insight into this little-known part of Conneaut Lake history.

Ferry Tales
