Description
It is a story covering 395 million years, a story told with a walrus skull and fossils, tourmaline and spear points, mammoth tusks and bone fishhooks, Norse coins and caulking irons, militia flags and survey stakes, treaty documents and wooden tankards, a temperance banner and a locomotive, Joshua Chamberlain's pistol and a cod tub trawl, a Lombard log hauler and a woman's WWII welding outfit, L. L. Bean boots and German POW snowshoes, and many more objects from the museum's collections. Short narratives written by museum curators are woven around each item--including photos of related objects--and the ensemble has been honed, polished, and introduced by museum director Bernard Fishman. This is a book that historians and Maine residents and visitors will delve into again and again, unearthing new treasures with each reading.
