"Among all the hundred of local histories that appeared in the thirteen original states between 1875 and 1889, none known to me is better done or more useful to readers three generations later than History of Carroll County, New Hampshire." -- J. Duane Squires, author of The Granite State of the United States, a history of New Hampshire.
