The Dollar-Table Hammer

The Dollar-Table Hammer by Dale Clarence Peterson lovingly chronicles the joyful, as well as the trying, times the author and his family experienced during extreme seasonal changes, encounters with local wildlife, and other challenges, with a sense of humor and an understanding of the value of New Hampshire’s life lessons. Set in East Pickerel Corners, New Hampshire, Peterson’s book introduces readers to his distinctly New England way of life. From the annoying and itchy bites of fleas and chiggers, to the necessity of winter foundation wraps, Peterson explores why New Hampshire living is unlike any other locale. Beautifully written and hilariously funny, The Dollar-Table Hammer mixes the wit of Dave Barry with the warmth of James Harriot. A wonderful portrait of an engaging family and a unique way of life, The Dollar-Table Hammer is sure to enchant readers wherever they live.
