Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A visit from the President of the United States always brings with it excitement. In Maine, perhaps part of that excitement stems from the fact that presidents rarely visit the state–only 18 of the 45 presidents have visited Maine in the nation’s 244-year history. Many of these visits came at significant points in a presidency; and some visits had controversy, conflict, and ironic twists. For example: * During George Washington’s visit, Maine was not even Maine, it was part of Massachusetts. * President Ulysses S. Grant was the hero of the recently ended Civil War. * President Richard Nixon was met with protests that saw Mainer battle Mainer. * President Carter spent the night of his visit with a common, ordinary Maine family, in their modest home. * President Trump’s visit came in the middle of a global pandemic. Each of Maine's presidential visits left us with great stories, and a detailed view of Maine's lively history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Maine is well known as a land of fresh air and clean water, as the home of L.L. Bean and as one of the most popular camping and outdoor recreation destinations in the country. But what lies behind this idyllic facade? Unmapped roads. Whispering rocks. Deadening fog. Ghost pirates. Lonely islands. THINGS in the woods. This is the great state of Maine, home of Stephen King, land of the Great Northern Woods and all the mystery that lies within their dark footprint. What better setting than this for tales of strange creatures, murderers, madmen and eccentric hermits? From the "Headless Halloween of 1940" to the mystery of who lies in the grave of V.P. Coolidge; from Bigfoot sightings to the "witch's grave" in a Portland cemetery, writer and illustrator Michelle Souliere brings to life these strange-but-true tales from the Pine Tree State.
