Produktbeschreibung
Through more than 200 images, many never before published, this volume explores life in a tiny village that once swelled to become the fastest growing community in the United States. With the arrival of the Londonderry Turnpike in 1806, the railroad in 1849, and trolleys in 1902, Salem farmers found their world expanding beyond their own stone fences--opening an era of entrepreneurial opportunity that continues to thrive today. In this century, Salem has its roots in housing developments, potato chips, Coca-Cola, horse racing, and roller coasters. Add in the eternal feud between New Hampshire and Massachusetts and you have the formula for an exciting story of wins, losses, twists, and turns that define this unique border town.
