Bibliography of Publications Relating to Amherst, NH

For researchers and genealogists, this six-page bibliography compiled by William P. Veillette will be an invaluable tool.  Intended to include all printed material relating to our town, many items are out-of-print and difficult to access.  If you're looking for a specific publication, or have information on any material we may have missed, please contact us.  We'll do our best to help.

 

Oral History Tape Collection

Over the years, we've accumulated quite a collection of audio interviews, primarily of long-time residents reflecting on life in "old" Amherst.  Many of these audio cassette interviews have also been transcribed.  Well worth a listen, they are available in the Archives Room at the Amherst Town Library.  Click on the link above for a complete list of the collection.

 

Historical Society Meeting Tapes

We have also captured on tape several of our program presentations.  They too are available in the Archives Room at the Amherst Town Library.  Click on the link above for a complete list of that collection.
