DOWNLOAD EBOOKBuilt by James Everell Henry, the East Branch & Lincoln Railroad (EB&L) is considered to be the grandest and largest logging railroad operation ever built in New England. In 1892, the mountain town of Lincoln, New Hampshire, was transformed from a struggling wilderness enclave to a thriving mill town when Henry moved his logging operation from Zealand. He built houses, a company store, sawmills, and a railroad into the East Branch of the Pemigewasset River watershed to harvest virgin spruce. Despite the departure of the last EB&L log train from Lincoln Woods by 1948, the industry's cut-and-run practices forever changed the future of land conservation in the region, prompting legislation like the Weeks Act of 1911 and the Wilderness Act of 1964. Today, nearly every trail in the Pemigewasset Wilderness follows or utilizes portions of the old EB&L Railroad bed.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe White Mountain National Forest and Great North Woods have been described as "nature's mammoth museum." This is a land of many lakes and rivers, mountains and waterfalls, and pristine natural splendor, abundant with historic charm. The White Mountain National Forest was established by presidential proclamation in 1918. It owes its existence to the passage of the Weeks Act of 1911, which enabled the federal government to purchase land and establish a national forest in New Hampshire's White Mountains. It is one of the most visited natural sites in the country, and tourists from all over the world make seasonal visits to this recreational haven. This book takes the reader on a historical journey through the national forest, including the majesty and grandeur of the Presidential Range, Great Gulf Wilderness, Pemigewasset Wilderness, and Sandwich Range Wilderness, as well as Franconia Notch, Pinkham Notch, Crawford Notch, and Great North Woods.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA number of good books on the history of Arizona's White Mountains already exist. These volumes (as with most historical accounts) speak of pioneers (and the characters among them) overcoming adversity and conquering nature to morph into the society we have today. Silent Witness looks at local history from different angles including the improbable viewpoint of nature. True exploits of some outstanding characters (both human and otherwise) are described. The White Mountains are centered about 165 miles north of the Mexican border and 25 miles west of the New Mexico state line. About half is occupied by the Apache Reservation. This region is one of the wildest and most remote areas left in the country. From the west side of the Apache Reservation, wildness flows southeasterly over forested peaks and river-washed canyons some 200 miles to the edge of the Rio Grande valley. This was the area chosen for the restoration of the Mexican Wolf and the Apache Trout. The author has worked and played in the forests of Arizona's White Mountains for over forty years. A student of local history, he presents some old familiar tales as well as many new stories from a fresh and sometimes controversial viewpoint.
