So, you think you know Maine? Think again! It's not just the woods,
waters, mountains, lobsters and lighthouses that define Maine. From
Kittery to Eastport, from Fort Kent to Monhegan, Maine is home to
natural wonders, quirky characters, remarkable inventors, and haunting
ghosts and legends. Whether it's Moxie Nerve Food, the North American
Wife Carrying Competition, UFO abductions along the Allagash, or
Kathadin's role in creating Bambi, this book by long-time journalist
Earl Brechlin celebrates all that makes the state unique-both real and
imagined. It not only recognizes the historical giants of Maine and its
natural beauty, but brings to life the myths, legends, truths, and tall
tales that have been shared around Maine's campfires for generations.
