You Know You're In New Hampshire When...
...fast day dies a slow death

New Hampshire has its own view of the world. Look through that lens and learn 101 quintessential people, places, events, eats, and traditions that help form the personality of the Granite State.
You'll find out when you can't eat, what to do when your lottery winnings have antlers, and why combining French fries, cheese, and gravy (among other things) has delicious consequences.
Whether you're a first-time visitor or a born-and-bred native, this book will make you smile as you discover what it really means to be in New Hampshire.
