| Publisher Description: Scenic sites and a proud community make Raymond the bucolic New Hampshire town it is today. The local cast of characters has its own unique story set in the heart of the Granite State. Local author Paul Brown has mined 250 years of town history, from the early settlement to the post-World War II boom. Search for the truth behind the conflicting stories of how the original Freetown became known as Raymond. Meet legendary locals like Dudley Tucker and dig into local legends like the mystery of Scud Lyman. The stories behind the Great White Rock and even Clint Eastwood connections color the history of Raymond. Join Paul Brown as he charts the remarkable course of Raymond history. |
