Discover the Tuttle legacy and the broader American story through their eyes. What secrets and stories does this enduring farm hold?

From the publisher

The story of Tuttle’s Red Barn is the story of America. John Tuttle arrived in Dover, New Hampshire, in 1632 with only his father’s ax and the two pewter candleholders his mother had given him after they’d hugged good-bye. But from that humble beginning he built the farm that, today, still stands on the same land. A fascinating look at America as seen through the eyes of one family. Tuttle’s Red Barn is a must read for anyone who appreciates the story of our country.
