Download or read book Moosehead Lake Region Gateway to Maine s North Woods written by Suzanne M. AuClair and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-08 with total page 128 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Moosehead Lake Region connected great river routes through the northern wilderness. For thousands of years, Native Americans canoed these waters. By the 1830s, Moosehead Lake became a staging ground for early Euro-American logging, settlement, and outdoor recreation, with Greenville as its supply center. Early rusticators included naturalist writer Henry David Thoreau. Later, guides like Greenville Algonquin Henry (Red Eagle) Perley and Penobscot Roland (Needahbeh) Nelson promoted this "Gateway to the North Woods" as an outdoor traveler's paradise. It is still today. --adapted from publisher's description.

Download or read book Return to Moose River written by Earl Brechlin and published by Down East Books. This book was released on 2018-04-01 with total page 297 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Someone once asked me how much I charge to guide people into the woods. “That’s free,” I explained. “Anyone can get themselves into the woods. You pay me to get you out.” Can anyone really know the northern forest? It is something you feel more in your heart than in your head. You may be able to locate your place on a map, but can you pinpoint the places the forest has hold of your soul? For more than forty years, Maine Guide Earl Brechlin has sought the answers. Through this series of interconnected essays, Brechlin recounts the annual canoe trips to the North Maine Woods he has made with a small group of friends, closing with the death of his twin brother and the group’s last trip to spread his brother’s ashes in the place he loved best. Often humorous and thrilling at once, the heartfelt narrative is peppered with tidbits of history, woods lore, and sage advice from a seasoned outdoorsman. What shines through is the author’s profound love of the natural world and his place in it.

Download or read book The Interrupted Forest written by Neil Rolde and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2024-10-01 with total page 417 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Add to this the thousands of farms that have grown back to woods since the Civil War, and you have the most forested state, by percentage, in the United States. But the “uninterrupted forest” that Henry David Thoreau first saw in the 1840s was never exactly that. Loggers had cut it severely, European settlers had gnawed into it, and, much earlier, native people had left their mark. This book takes you deep into the past to understand the present, allowing you to hear the stories of the people and events that have shaped the woods and made them what they are today.

Download or read book Woods and Lakes of Maine A Trip from Moosehead Lake to New Brunswick in a Birch Bark Canoe written by Tommy Carbone and published by . This book was released on 2020-03-05 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Hubbard and The Captain" - the 1881 version of Bryson and Katz in "A Walk in the Woods." Written in the spirit of Thoreau's, "The Maine Woods" - this is a classic book about nature, wildlife, and exploring. In the September of 1881, Lucius L Hubbard and "The Captain," set off with their Indian guides, Silas and Joe, for a month-long canoe trip in the Maine north woods. In this text, Hubbard captures the details of their trip from Greenville, at the south end of Moosehead Lake, to Edmundston, New Brunswick. The book describes the scenery, their meals, the wildlife, and what they encountered along the trail. In this new 2020 annotated edition we have included updated notes and new photographs of the area of Maine where the trip took place. The original engraved etchings are digitally mastered from an original 1884 copy of the book. Hubbard wrote this about the adventure, "The keen enjoyment of many hours had made ample amends for the few hardships we had undergone, while the lessons we had had of Nature's teaching will form a priceless treasure-book, of which, when we are far removed from her schoolhouse, we may turn the leaves anew, and read again and again the story we had conned." I am sure readers will treasure this story today, as much as Hubbard treasured the Maine woods that he so carefully describes within these pages.
