Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Gazetteer of the State of Maine: With Numerous Illustrations The historical knowledge of the State which the author acquired in the preparation of The Young People's History of Maine, led to an increased acquaintance with its people and localities; and the popularity of that work has led to the belief that a Gazetteer of the State, in which every town, plantation, mountain, lake and bay should receive due mention would be welcomed by the intelligent people of 'maine. Accordingly, the attempt has been made to present in these pages a clear and concise topographical description, together with a brief historical and statistical notice of the several counties, cities. Towns and villages of the State. Three works of a somewhat similar nature had previously been offered to the public; but the two older ones are rarely to be found and are quite out of date, and therefore wide from present facts, while a recent work is on a plan not suited to the popular demand. It is hoped that the present compilement may meet the requirements of a great number of people; yet the author is con scious that the book is not perfect, neither is it so full as it might be made would space allow. To those desiring more of a business and political directory the author would recommend The Maine Register, the excellent year book of Hoyt, Fogg Donham. The author takes this opportunity to express his thanks for the full specifications furnished by clerks of cities, towns and plantations by filling our blank circulars and by letters. One city and a few towns have failed to respond, wherefore the articles relating to those places are not so full as they otherwise would be.
