Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Variety: From a Canvasser´s Note Book New Hampshire, how I love your rugged features! Your wild hills, your pleasant valleys, your ponds, lakes, rivers and brooks, the winding roads, the picturesque scenery, the nestling farm houses, the village homes, the busy cities of industrial activities, embowered in the midst of the richest of nature´s wonderland. The weary mechanic has but a short walk from his machinery, with its noise and dust, to the freshest of God´s pure air, the brightest of sunshine, the most entrancing scenery and the completest repose; where only the warble of birds, the hum of insects and the chatter of squirrels break the calm silence. I have grown up among these green hills: I have wandered to every corner of this field of natural delights. My eye has lingered upon the winter mountains, with their white summits "cloud-crowned in the sun" and has drunk deep from the island-studded depths of fair Lake Winnipesaukee. The valleys of the Androscoggin, the Merrimack, the Connecticut, the Ammonousuc, the Ashuelot, the Saco, and the dozens of smaller rivers that course the state, are as familiar to my eyes as the school ground of the old red school house where I went to school when a boy. The reaches of sand and shore that stretch along our Atlantic border where the great gray giant of fathomless waters alternately kisses the smiling strand and then beats upon it with all the fury of the wind-driven tempests.
