From 1944-46 the village of Stark, New Hampshire was home to 300 German prisoners of war. These prisoners cut pulpwood in the local forests. Surprising, their imprisonment in America grew into friendships formed with the people of Stark, rekindled forty years later in a unique reunion. Dr. Koop is the foremost authority on this very interesting event in American and Northern New Hampshire history.
