Historic Meetinghouses and Churches of New Hampshire

Author(s): Glenn A. Knoblock
$28.99
DESCRIPTION
Historic Meetinghouses and Churches of New Hampshire thoroughly documents the history of these unique civic and religious related structures in all areas of the state from Colonial times into the twentieth century.

Discussed are details about key building features and how the design of these structures evolved over time, the circumstances under which they were built, the men who built them, and the many interesting and unique events and personages, including prominent ministers and local religious leaders, with whom they have been associated over the years.

While these beautiful white-painted buildings today are a symbol to many of the close-knit and harmonious village life of yesteryear, in many cases they were also the focal point for local civic and religious disputes that were often lively and raucous, with some events taking an even more serious turn.

Whether you use this informative and interesting book as an arm-chair guide or hit the road to see these buildings in person, it is certain that, once having read it, you will view New Hampshire’s historic meetinghouses and churches in a whole new light.
