Mystic, CT Was Built on Bloodshed, Boatbuilding, and Tourism #mysticct #history Note: While Mystic, CT was instrumental in the preservation and public display of the Charles W. Morgan and the schooner L. A. Dunton, neither vessel was built in Mystic. Mystic, Connecticut was shaped by bloodshed, boatbuilding, and preservation.
