"Passion for Skiing" By Stephen L. Waterhouse
In North America, the students, staff, alumni and families associated with Dartmouth College took an early leadership role in the development of modern skiing, a role which continues to this day. This book explains its origins and how it has evolved and expanded for more than 100 years. Although the Dartmouth influence on winter activities is broader than skiing, it is in this multifarious area that this one small institution has remained preeminent with its enthusiastic and irrepressible "Passion for Skiing."

One day six-year-old Annie watched her father cut apart an old wooden sailboat. That evening while being tucked into bed, she asked him to tell her a story about the boat, named "Penny."

"World War II Remembered" by Residents of Kendall of Hanover
There are no Hollywood heroics told in this collection. The cost of war is woven into the fabric of every tale, of every remembrance. Each writer "tells it like it was" -- tells tales spun from the enormity of war at home and abroad. Like many such collections of experiences lived in times of terrible stress, "World War II Remembered" stands as a valuable historical document... "World War II Remembered" is an exceptional human document -- a legacy of greatness to be treasured for a very long time. (from the introduction by Joe Medlicott)

"Dartmouth at War" by The Dartmouth Class of 1942
The Class of 1942 arrived in Hanover in the fall of 1938, 673 strong, young men from around the country. They immediately took on the task of cleaning up the community following the devastating hurricane that had just struck. They left Hanover in the spring of 1942, facing a far bigger task in a world at war. The men of the class stepped up to the task of fighting a massive and costly war and building a world of peace. Ninety-one percent of the Dartmouth College Class of 1942 served in World War II. Here are some of their stories. (from the cover and the forward by James Wright)
