Straddling the towns of Norwalk, Wilton, and New Canaan is the little valley known as Silvermine, an artists' colony whose rural feel has changed little since it was settled in the Colonial era. By the 19th century, a dozen mills were humming along the Silvermine River. When the mills became silent with the advent of steam power, the bucolic beauty of the valley attracted painters and sculptors, writers and poets, and illustrators and cartoonists who formed a celebrated artists' colony centered around the Silvermine Guild of Artists and the Silvermine Tavern. In 2006, an enclave of 85 buildings in the core neighborhood, including a number of artists' homes, were recognized as part of the Silvermine Center Historic District. Today, Silvermine continues to attract residents who value its artistic heritage and natural beauty.

New Canaan, Connecticut, is one of the richest towns in the U.S. The book is a compilation of 140 arbitrarily chosen individuals who have been past or present residents, from moralist Anthony Comstalk, the first female ambulance surgeon, and the inventor of the Tommy Gun, to David Letterman, Paul Simon, and Brian Williams. All is documented and includes tales never before published. Major architects, critics, authors, painters, business CEOs (IBM, GE, JetBlue, Perkin-Elmer), inventors, cartoonists, sculptors, teachers, and humanities leaders lived in the small town with a private railroad track directly to Grand Central in New York City. The compilation includes negative as well as positive views.
