Book Description
A mecca for families and beachgoers for over one hundred years, Hampton is situated along New Hampshire's short coastline. Composed of two distinct parts--town and beach--the town is a study in contrasts. The quiet, colonial village three miles inland did not see much growth until after World War II. Meanwhile, the beach area progressed rapidly from a nearly deserted stretch of ocean occupied by fishermen and a few scattered hotels to a bustling beach resort that could draw more than 100,000 tourists on a hot Fourth of July weekend. This fascinating volume contains over two hundred old photographs. Vintage images of Hampton Beach show the resort through its many changes; from its lazy beginnings, through the era of the grand hotels, electric trolley cars, and swing bands who played at the Ballroom, up to the 1950s, when the beach became a popular family resort destination.

Book Description
The national best-selling memoir about banishment, reconciliation, and the meaning of family "This sobering portrayal of a pregnant teen exiled from her small New Hampshire community is a testament to the importance of understanding and even forgiving the people who . . . have made us who we are” —O, The Oprah Magazine A New York Times Bestseller, now with an epilogue from the author Meredith Hall’s moving but unsentimental memoir begins in 1965, when she becomes pregnant at sixteen. Shunned by her insular New Hampshire community, she is then kicked out of the house by her mother. Her father and stepmother reluctantly take her in, hiding her before they finally banish her altogether. After giving her baby up for adoption, Hall wanders recklessly through the Middle East, where she survives by selling her possessions and finally her blood. She returns to New England and stitches together a life that encircles her silenced and invisible grief. Her lost son tracks her down when he turns twenty-one, and Hall learns that he grew up in gritty poverty with an abusive father in her own father’s hometown. Their reunion is tender, turbulent, and ultimately redemptive. Hall’s parents never ask for her forgiveness, yet as they age, she offers them her love. Here, loss and betrayal evolve into compassion, and compassion into wisdom.

Book Description
Two teenaged girls make a series of bad decisions that get them murdered. Two policemen, Detective-Sergeant Joseph Horak and Chief Robert Baker, try valiantly to discover their murderers, but are thwarted by others in the police department, state police and government. The question is why? No one knows for sure but the investigation is blocked and mishandled at every turn. Detective Horak and Chief Baker are in shock at first as to how this could happen, but eventually they can only surmise that some people in key positions are hiding the facts that would break this case. This is the true story of a murder investigation by real police in real circumstances in a small town in rural NH. The names are real and so are the places. Since retirement, both Joseph Horak and Robert Baker have continued to chase every lead and employ any means to bring the killer to justice. They have been in touch with television shows and newspapers, written letters and letters to anyone at all who might have been in position to help and to no avail, all because the powers that be have blocked any further work on this case. These two men have spent 30 years trying to bring the killer in, but justice has been denied for Diane Compagna and Anne Psaradelis.
