New EnglandNew England MaineMaine Vermont Vermont New Hampshire New Hampshire MassachusettsMassachusetts ConnecticutConnecticut Rhode IslandRhode Island
"The English explorer Captain John Smith, while cruising the coast of North America in 1614, christened the land New England. The name came to be used when referring to the four early British colonies here: Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, and New Hampshire. In the 1700s the states of Maine and Vermont were included. Since that time, the six states have preserved their character as a unique region."Tom Brosnahan and Kim Grant's Lonely Planet guidebook for New England
