Maine

Mt. Katahdin sits at the terminus of the Appalachian Trail, a sublimely gratifying sight for weary hikers. Our Maine history books offer enterprising readers a similar satisfaction. The defiant crags of Midcoast Maine yield to the flowering wildwoods of Acadia National Park. The vile deeds of North Woods killer James Hicks are countered with the unflagging nobility of Mainer nurses and firefighters. From the confines of Portsmouth Naval Prison to the remotest logging trails of the Pine Tree State, discover history that could only be made in Maine. [View all Maine books]
