From a bizarre French and Indian War battle to the state's first impeachment trial, It Happened in New Hampshire looks at intriguing people and episodes from the history of the Granite State. ·Relive the humorous, not-so-adventurous "camping" trip by a group of America's most famous industrial titans in 1919, whose necessities included a personal chef and an electric generator. ·Find out how one woman's kind act toward a young Native American years later spared her and her children from certain death during a ruthless revenge attack on settlers in a Dover garrison. ·Learn how concern to protect the White Mountains from environmental degradation contributed to the establishment of national forests across the United States. ·Discover how a fearless force of thirty soldiers refused surrender and sucessfully held off an army of 700 French militia and Indian allies at a remote outpost. ·Read about how two colonial governors-who, coincidentally, were close relatives-shocked their citizens with nearly equally scandalous, completely unexpected marriages.
