While Leonard Allison Morrison is known by most as Windham's greatest historian, he was also an avid publisher and author on many works of history and genealogy. After writing "The History of Windham, New Hampshire: 1719 - 1883," Morrison published several more works including:
  • "Dedication Exercises of the Armstrong Building" - Read Online
  • "The History of the Morison or Morrison Family" - Read Online
  • "Rambles in Europe" (Morrison's trip through Europe) - Read Online
  • "Supplement to the History of Windham in New Hampshire" - Read Online
  • "Lineage and Biographies of the Norris Family in America" - Read Online
  • "The History of the Alison or Allison Family in Europe and America" - Read Online
  • "The Armstrong Family of Windham, NH" - Read Online
  • "The History of the Sinclair Family of Europe and America" - Read Online
  • "The Earliest History and Genealogy of the Dinsmoor-Dinsmore Family" - Read Online
  • "Among the Scotch-Irish: and a Tour in Seven Countries" - Read Online
  • "History of the Kimball Family in America" - Read Online
  • "History and Proceedings of the Celebration of the One Hundred and Fiftieth Anniversary of the Incorporation of the Settlement of Windham in New Hampshire" - Read Online
  • "Poems of Robert Dinsmoor, the 'Rustic Bard'" - Read Online
Morrison's long list of published books likely ranks him as Windham's most prolific author of his era, or any other in the town's long history. His literary contributions easily amount to thousands and thousands of pages, years of research, and numerous family genealogies and historical anecdotes preserved for future readers. ​
