Product Description
Beloved by residents and tourists alike for its rustic woods and gorgeous beaches, Maine embodies true Yankee tradition. Ranging from Brunswick, where Harriet Beecher Stowe wrote Uncle Tom's Cabin, to Cadillac Mountain, reputedly the first place in the U.S. to see the sun each day, here is a colorful portrait of a state synonymous with clambakes and covered bridges, harbors and hiking, lobsters and lighthouses, and mail-order pioneer L. L. Bean-and home to such prominent Americans as Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, Winslow Homer, Margaret Chase Smith, and Stephen King.
134 illustrations, 115 in full color
Reader Reviews
This discreet unpretentoius little book is a gem. It gets a great balance between facts and info and the spirit and art of the state. A great starting point for planning a trip to the state of Maine. I was keen to find out as much about the state before my planning was too advanced and this has been an enormous help in steering toward some (apparently, not been yet so not sure) very interesting places. It is not designed to sell the state or any particular element such as hotels or dining. It does cover what it says the Spirit and the Art. A really great little book that I will treasure and return to I will also be buying others in the series!!
