First saw this book in a B&B I was staying at in Lubec, ME. Loved it, and was pleased to be able to buy a copy for myself and later a copy as a birthday gift for a friend who just turned 85 who was born, raised and still lives in Maine. He says it best: "The pictures and story are real Maine. It is a fun read." I couldn't agree more.
