In this presentation, Stephanie Erickson, author of the recently published book Islands of Southern Lake Winnipesaukee, delves into the rich history of 45 islands in this region. She explores the geology and formation of the islands and the lake, the origins of the island names, an indigenous cremation site, the advent of colonial ownership, youth summer camps on the islands, and the Diamond Island Field Station.
