Mcgrath, Anna Fields, General Editor, - The County: Land of Promise: a pictorical history of Aroostook County, Maine.

Norfolk, VA, Donning Company, (1989). VG in VG DJ. Big beautiful book with a myriad of photos of the often forgotten "the county" often only known by that designtion. From the arrival of the Native Americans to the coming of modern tourists, Aroostook County has represented the promised land for many diverse people seeking a new life, a new home, or a refuge in which to preserve the best of the old ways. "There is a special quality that binds all of our diverse backgrounds together and makes us one people. It is a certain breed of independence that arises out of decades of self-reliance; out of the knowledge that the only ones we could count on in times of adversity were ourselves.We take a degree of pride from living in a land of harsh winters where a person must work hard in order to achieve economic survival and from the fact that many of our families have succeeded for generations in this endeavor." Presentation copy from Key Bank. Slight taning to top edges of pages.
