Step into New Hampshire on the threshold of the Civil War: a working book of time, duty, and public life. Part historical state register, part 19th century almanac, it captures how government actually looked in 1861. Names. Dates. Offices. Places. Lives. The New-Hampshire Annual Register, and United States Calendar for the Year 1861 gathers the practical information citizens relied upon: a government directory reference for New Hampshire public officials, alongside listings that map state and federal offices and the rhythms of the US calendar for 1861. Read it straight through for the texture of everyday administration, or open it at random to trace a town, a surname, a public post, or a political moment. For historians, it is a local history reference rich in period detail; for family researchers, a grounded genealogy research resource that helps anchor lives in 1861 New Hampshire. As a snapshot of the antebellum United States tipping into conflict, this annual register stands as quiet evidence from the margins of national events, valuable to anyone seeking civil war era records beyond headlines. Beyond day-to-day utility, it reads as a portrait of civic order: rosters and appointments, changing titles, and the geography of authority, useful to librarians, educators, and attentive armchair readers too. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike, and a handsome addition to any New England almanacs collection.
