Download or read book The Old Orchard written by Jeffrey A. Scully and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2003-06-01 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Pine Point in the north to Goosefare Brook in the south, Old Orchard boasts miles of marvelous sandy beaches. For hundreds of years, this well-loved stretch of coastline was home to Native Americans and a few hardy settlers, undisturbed by the chaos and cacophony of modern life. With the coming of the railroad in 1874 this serene place exploded into life. The boom in tourism brought hundreds and then thousands of pleasure-seekers every week to the Old Orchard. They came to relax in the opulent surroundings of the elegant hotels, to stroll hand in hand along the pier with their sweethearts, and to feel the thrill of the wind in their hair as they rode the rollercoaster. Some came to dance to the Big Band sound of Glen Miller and Benny Goodman; some came to ride on the Dummy Railroad; others arrived to take airplane flights over the beach, or to watch automobile races in the sand.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Old Orchard It was after the noon hour of a particularly warm day in June; such a day as the rustic, panting with all his aerating capacity as he toils at making hay, describes laconically as a scorcher. The new-mown grass wilted, then became crisp. The cattle sought the friendly shade of all the available trees of the pasture. Robins having a family to provide for might be seen resting a moment on a bough, with loosely opened wings and gaping bill. The air rang with the croon ing of crickets and the crackle of brown grasshoppers; while the bumble-bee hummed by in his glory, laden with the rich spoils of his morning forage. Over the dry roofs, upon which the vertical sun had glared for hours, the apparent quivering of the atmosphere gave evidence of the intensity of the heat.

Book excerpt: From 1631 to the present, Old Orchard Beach has had a singularly rich history among New EnglandA[a¬a[s summer communities. Old Orchard was originally a small seacoast farming community nestled on the shore of Saco Bay. When the railroad came in 1873, the coast exploded into one of the grandest Victorian settings in Maine. It boasted famous religious camp meetings, transatlantic flights, big bands, big fires, harness racing, and automobile racing on the beach. The Kennedy family, Bette Davis, Fred Allen, Rosa and Carmen Ponselle, Pierre Trudeau, and Charles Lindbergh all rejuvenated themselves in this community. Old Orchard Beach is still a vacation mecca, and residents and visitors alike will find enjoyment and education within these pages.
