Stories from the White Mountains

2013. By Mike Dickerman. Enjoy this collection of historical pieces on the White Mountains by the well-known New Hampshire guidebook author and publisher. In these pages, you'll read about the region's colorful logging railroad era, the days of the grand hotels, early explorations on Mount Washington and the high peaks of the Whites, and the devastating Hurricane of September 1938. The author also profiles a former Civilian Conservation Corps enrollee who went on to a long and successful career in the forests of northern New Hampshire, and writes about the women fire lookouts of World War II. This is Dickerman's follow-up book to his best-selling title from earlier this year, White Mountains Hiking History, also published by The History Press. Softcover. 128 pp.
