Discover New Hampshire at the moment of its making: a province becoming a state. Every page preserves hard-won memory. Jeremy Belknap's The History of New-Hampshire (Volume II) continues his classic New England historical narrative through the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, tracing the colony's growth, conflicts and transformation in the era of colonial and revolutionary New England. Both a compelling colonial American history book and a vivid portrait of everyday life in 18th century New Hampshire, it brings readers close to the landscapes, townships and personalities that shaped the state. In this early state history volume, Belknap moves beyond battles and charters to record the natural history of New Hampshire, its rivers, forests, wildlife, climate and resources, alongside careful accounts of agriculture, trade and settlement. He examines New Hampshire laws and government, church and town institutions, and the changing manners of a diverse population, creating one of the earliest full histories of any American state. For anyone interested in colonial and revolutionary New England or in New England local histories, it remains a foundational reference book for historians and a valuable primary source for researchers. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today -- a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Essential for any Jeremy Belknap history collection, it will appeal equally to general readers seeking a lucid narrative and to serious students building a library of classic New England scholarship.
