Book excerpt: Maine: The Home Place features ninety-six breathtaking and elegantly presented color photographs of Maine, all previously unpublished, accenting what the author/photographer refers to as "the other Maine." Taken over the course of twenty-four years, these powerful and provocative images are presented in five sections that together, will modify many readers' perceptions of the essence of Maine, a state widely held to be defined by its picturesque, rock-ribbed coastline clinging to a murky and unknown outback. "The Land" celebrates the stunning, too-often overlooked beauties of tranquil inland Maine; "The People" highlights the unique and marvelous character of Mainers today; "Farms" poignantly exposes the nature of rural contemporary life, in which Maine faces the decline and disappearance of its farm heritage; "Sonatas, Fractals, Koans, and Elegies" closely observes Maine's striking lakes, mountains, and woodlands; and, "The Coast" features Sayeen's fresh take on Maine's well-loved harbors and shore. Brief narratives by the photographer introduce each section, and the book closes with his short "Notes on Photography." The lyrical introduction by Roger Payne sets the stage for the photographic feast that is Maine: The Home Place. Each memorable photograph has meaning in terms of the landscape and the people who live and work in Maine. Together they subtly convey inland and coastal Maine's ravishing beauty and dramatic geography, the Yankee innocence, durability, and enduring purity of spirit embodied by Mainers in the face of modern challenges to their forefathers' honored way of life, and the wealth of visually striking forms in which nature manifests herself in all seasons. Visitors and residents alike will cherish this emotionally charged and exquisite visual celebration of Maine, the first photographic collection to pay homage to the entire state in all its grace and glory.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Representative Men of Maine: A Collection of Portraits With Biographical Sketches of Residents of the State, Who Have Achieved Success to Which Is Added the Portraits and Sketches of All the Governors Since the Formation of the State In the preparation of this volume it has been the aim of the publishers to produce a work that should in a considerable degree be representative of the prominent and progressive men of our State in professional, business, political, and official life. It was our desire to picture the leading men who are helping to make the history of Maine to-day and who are doing so much to shape its course in the future, so that it shall not only retain its proud position of the past, but keep in the front rank of her sister States of the Republic. It has been well said that he who would satisfactorily study the fabric of a common wealth must first study the men who formed it We all are justly proud of the material progress of Maine of her factories, railroads, commercial and industrial establishments: but these are only the silent monuments of the brains and characters, of the men, who formed them, many of which we herein attempt to illustrate. Men are always a State's best product, and a proper portrayal of them should be regarded as a laudable enterprise. Not all those who deserve recognition appear in this book. To properly present every one who is doing even considerable to help along our interests, and therefore winning in some measure fame and fortune for themselves, would be a task no one would willingly attempt, because of its great magnitude: but we think we can fairly claim that very many of those representing the more important interests of our Stale appear in this volume. When we first contemplated the work, we thought to publish only the biographies and portraits of living men, but a considerable number of our leading citizens urged us to incorporate into the book the portraits and historical sketches of all the Governors of Maine from the formation of the State in 1820 to the present time. This we finally consented to do. The portraits of the early Governors were fast fading out and suitable material for an historical account of many of them was becoming scattered, and for the purpose of putting both in permanent form and where they would be accessible to the public, we concluded to undertake the work and assume the large expense incident to it, believing that it would add historical value to the book and be appreciated by the people of the State. The editor assumes entire responsibility for the biographical and historical matter which appears in this book. He has had access to many sources of information and has sought to give the historical data, etc., full and correct. That there are no errors is not probable, but he fully believes that all material statements are in the main correct, and had space been afforded him much more might justly have been said in honor of the people represented than herein appears. But in perusing these somewhat limited and perhaps imperfectly prepared historical sketches, one fact will become plain to the reader, and that is that integrity, persevering industry, and frugal habits in youth and a conscientious and faithful discharge of every confided trust in older years have been the sure foundation upon which the successful lives herein described have been built. We present this volume to the prosperous and progressive people of our State with our sincere thanks for the interest they have manifested in the enterprise and the material aid they have furnished us, without which the preparation of this volume would have been impossible. It goes abroad with the hope and assurance that it will be a credit to the men it represents and an honor to the State of Maine.
