I'm compiling a list of locations in New Hampshire that have appeared in
literature, poetry, historic speeches, song, even film scripts. Some
obvious examples are Celia Thaxter's Isles of Shoals poetry and
Metalious' Gilmanton/Peyton Place parallels. Folksinger Bill Staines
wrote an ode to the Old Man of the Mountain and Daniel Webster used the
Old Man in a famous speech. The dialogue from Golden Pond describes the
ambiance of the Squam Lakes. You get the idea. Let me know of any
others, well known or obscure, that come to mind.

Thanks,
