Back Cover Copy
Your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the Pine Tree State has to offer! Discover the very best places for blueberry pie, tube steaks, Italian sandwiches (the real Maine food), and—we kid you not—chocolate moose. Meet a chain saw sculptor who can carve the entire alphabet on a No. 2 pencil, carve your name on a belt buckle while you’re wearing it, and carve a sculpture using two chain saws at the same time. Learn how a desert ended up in the middle of Maine; about Moxie, the state’s official soft drink; and why Maine has no poisonous snakes. Whether you’re a born-and-raised Mainer or a recent transplant, authors Tim Sample and Steve Bither will have you laughing out loud as they introduce you to the neighbors you never knew you had and take you to places you never knew existed—right in your own backyard.
