Book excerpt: The trilogy of historical novels invite readers to enter the world of the isolated island, where the village of Perkins Township was incorporated and thriving in 1847 but abandoned in 1938 when ferry service was discontinued, and continues throughout the time that the caretakers, Steve Powell and Parker Blen, farmed the island. The historical novel begins with the arrival of Englishmen at Sabino in 1607, encompasses the time period of first contact between coastal explorers and fur traders with Abenaki natives in the 1600's, (who named the island Sowan-gen=Swan, translated as tribe or gen from the island of eagles), and forward into the twenty first century.

This book was released on 2022-07-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sights and sounds come alive via the story of how love, patience, and living on a magical island cured a child diagnosed as terminal. Faced with the grim diagnosis at age three, Cinnamon learns to read, journal, and write her own stories about island life. A patient grandmother homeschooled her on days traveling across the river was impossible; her grandfather shared his knowledge of managing the deer herd and other wildlife on the freshwater island. Trips down the Perkins Highway, the sole dirt road splitting the island in half, allowed daily opportunities to feed deer directly out of the truck window. Cinnamon imagined solitary games, wrote original stories, and became more vigorous and healthier as months and years passed. Befriending animals was easy when they became comfortable with her scents and habits. As an adult, she kayaks to the island to write while enjoying sitting in the Adirondack chairs provided at the Kennebec Riverside.

Book excerpt: Originally published in 1937 as part of the Rivers of America series, this book has become a classic of Maine literature. And only Robert P. Tristram Coffin could have woven this story of the majestic Kennebec and the people who lived beside it, from the Popham Plantation in the early 1600s to the 1930s.

Book excerpt: The small Downeast Maine community of Swan's Island has seen summer people come and go, but it has held on to its stories.
