Annotated Edition.
A Maine Classic Guide Book with history and legends.
This beautiful hardcover is updated with new material, notes, and annotations.
Dr. Lucius Lee Hubbard spent his vacations in the Moosehead Lake Region of Maine
and the even more remote north woods. This guide not only details the
wilderness lakes, pond, rivers, and mountains, it also contains
historical notes, Native American legends, and tips for camping
excursions.
In his writing, Hubbard captures a period in time,
almost 130 years ago, that is not unlike what you will find today in the
woods of northern Maine.
Originally published in 1893, readers will
find this an interesting and historical look-back to what was, and yet
what in many ways still is, unspoiled Maine forest.
Whether you are
planning your first visit to northern Maine, or are a frequent visitor,
this book is sure to be entertaining and provide you with a few facts
you may not have known. It will make a great addition to your library
and belongs in every Maine camp.
This Annotated Edition is updated with new material and photographs of the Maine woods.
Read about Moosehead Lake, Mount Kineo, Katahdin, area legends, Maine rivers, and the Allagash Wilderness.
