Clark, Charles E., - Maine a Bicentennial History.

NY, Norton, (1977). 2nd ptg. VG in VG DJ. The place, Maine, that Ferdinando Gorges long ago named on the far northeastern edge of the nation is today much the same as. it was then, knife-edge of Mount Katahdin, flatlands of Aroostook, Sebago Lake, islands of Casco Bay, but to author Clark the history of the place is really the history of people's images of it, and those images have changed greatly. For the Abnaki Indians who came east, Maine was Dawnland, other settlers, Europeans, came west searching first for Norumbega, a mythical city of gold and silver; for John Josselyn the region was an idyllic curiosity; Cotton Mather saw a moral desert inviting conquest; James Sullivan pictured the new American nation; John Alfred Poore envisioned it as a vast commercial empire of shipbuilding and lumbering. Libary blind stamp, some underlining.
