New Hampshire

One of the original Thirteen Colonies, New Hampshire was the first to declare independence from England. With a motto like “Live Free or Die,” you might expect as much. The Granite State sits above Massachusetts and is squeezed between Vermont and Maine, with a small outlet to the Atlantic Ocean. This is a forested, mountainous state, also known as the “Mother of Rivers” because its rugged mountains spawn five of New England’s major rivers. These rivers served New Hampshire well during the Industrial Revolution, helping transform the state into a textile powerhouse. Today, the streams and rivers are better known for brook trout, one of New Hampshire’s two official state fish; the large-mouth bass is the other. Early European settlers planted orchards from seedlings they imported from the Old World. Today New Hampshire is an important apple-growing and maple syrup-producing state. In 1719, Scotch-Irish immigrants introduced the potato into New Hampshire farms; the English brought turnips; and French-Canadian settlers offered recipes for salmon pies and pickled beets.
