following James Fallows blog

Always enjoyed reading his work in Atlantic, or the occasional book. Recently discovered his blog here:
http://jamesfallows.theatlantic.com/

He incorporated a reference to this article he wrote in 1993: How the World Works.   Timely for today, an analysis of economics (and capitalism) taking onto consideration the viewpoint of American and British economic orthodoxy, vs other points of view, particularly Friedrich List.

Saved here in part for future reference.

NH Division of Parks and Recreation has this to say: Pillsbury State Park.
