Description: "Meet Maryanna Hatch and Rosemary Coffin, two New Hampshire homemakers, who decided to change the world. Well, maybe that wasn't their original intent - but they gathered a group of savvy Seacoast citizens with them, and decided to create a brand new way to retire. Not just for themselves, but for their children, and generations to come. This first-ever history of an Exeter institution details the trials and tribulations, the turning points and the triumphs of a small group of people determined to make a difference; and touches on the astonishing result of their work, which surprised even them"--Jacket
