Contra music, covered bridges, clambakes and Cape Cod... we’re the smallest region in size and population yet one of the largest contributors of culture and history... and two University of New Hampshire professors took on the daunting task in compiling it all into one large book. Today on the Exchange, we’ll look at what makes New England... New England. Laura's guests are David Watters, Professor of English and Director of the Center for New England Culture at the University of New Hampshire and Burt Feintuch, Professor of Folklore and English and Director of the Center for the Humanities at the University of New Hampshire. Both men are the Editors of "The Encyclopedia of New England".
