Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Kennebec Valley: This Work Is Devoted to the Early History of the Valley; Also Relating Many Incidents and Adventures of the Early Settlers; Including a Brief Sketch of the Kennebec Indian The Kennebec valley was the birthplace of the writer of this little volume; his childhood days were spent in a small town upon the rivers bank. His maturer years have been spent in this beautiful valley. The towns treated of in this work are among the most important in the State. The writer wishes to give a faithful record of the wondrous past; such a record as will be read with interest at every fireside. It is believed that the work is, as far as is possible in a first edition, correct; and it is recommended to the careful consideration of the inhabitants of the valley, and it is hoped that the general reader may become interested.

This book was released on 2022-08-29 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fans of Gay M. Grant's Along the Kennebec: The Herman Bryant Collection will enjoy these more than 200 newly released images taken by gifted South Gardiner photographer Herman Bryant (1858-1937). Now part of the collections of the Maine State Museum, Bryant's work documents late-19th- and early-20th-century life in the Kennebec River region during its industrial heyday. New information about Bryant and his family reveals fascinating stories about the people and places captured in his photographs. From Augusta downriver to Bath and the coastal islands, Bryant's lens captured the mills, factories, icehouses, and other ventures that once lined the river's banks. Vessels of all types that once made the river the artery of the region's life and economy can be seen along with images of the railroads that revolutionized travel. Bryant's poignant portraits, photographs of homes, and even images of beloved pets bring to life the industrious Maine people who built thriving communities.
