Look To The Mountain

Post by marilyn morning » Tue Apr 01, 2008 4:07 am

This is a historical novel of the men and women who pioneered the New England wilderness.

I highly recommend this as a must read if you're interested in the development of Northern New England. Its a very interesting and thought provoking novel, which begins in the fields of Massachusetts in 1769.

Jere Daniell of Dartmouth College wrote

"Look to the Mountain is one of the most enduring popular novels written in the United States during the past half century. Published first in 1942, it has remained in print, appearing in seven differen editions with two dozen reprints, and has sold over a million copies. The book's history testifies to the continuing appeal of the novel.
