New Hampshires only president, his term of office was not considered very significant and he has become somewhat forgotten. I recently read in the local paper that a man is doing research and plans to write a book to try and keep his memory alive, especially among NH people. Suffice it to say that he does not have a presidential library, not even a presidential bookcase, and unless this man gets the job done, not even a presidential book!!! But he is ours and some states don't have any! And this is the state with a motto that proclaims Live Free or Die.
