Abstract
One of the intents of this project was to create a rounded illustration of the town and
surrounding area of Exeter, New Hampshire. It is a town that has many interesting themes, including
its historical significance as an early Puritan break colony, the home to a prestigious prep school and
as a port at the intersection of two rivers. The area is also a very diverse ecological system. The
natural springs, wetlands, fish and wildlife have been an important resource for human survival until
very recently. Possibly, the most major theme though may be my own relationship with it.
This collection of writings contains an assortment of voices and vantage points that portray
the New Hampshire town where I grew up. There are an uncountable number of voices that make
Exeter the town it is. I have represented only a few. The voices are often fictitious and were inspired
by my past experiences, research, friends and interviews. I hope that you find this collection as
quirky and enjoyable as it was to write.
