Description

This volume is compilation of short stories, essays, poems and legends about the Maine woods from: Fannie Hardy Eckstorm, Manly Hardy, Thomas W. Higginson, and Tommy Carbone; with the poems of Anna Boynton Averill.Fannie Hardy Eckstorm may be a lesser-known Maine outdoors writer than Henry Thoreau, but she was a Mainer, and she spent more time in the woods on a single of her many trips, than Thoreau did in all his trips combined. Eckstorm knew the woods, the animals, and the woodsmen. She was an author, school superintendent, historian, naturalist, taxidermist, and ornithologist. Her writing is descriptive and warm; the words will take you to the woods where she describes the habits of the birds and the character of a fire built from poplar wood. She was diverse in her knowledge and within she adds references to literature and Maine knowledge.Manly Hardy, Fannie's father, was a well-known Maine woodsman, fur trader, ornithologist, and respected man of Brewer, Maine. He contributed his own experiences through magazine articles and his journal entries. A few of which are preserved for the reader in this book. However, he took a specific interest in teaching his daughter the ways of the woods, both in survival and in documenting. His keen eye, observation, and acquaintances no doubt led Fannie Hardy Eckstorm becoming the outdoors writer she was.Most of the writings are timeless pieces from the 1800s and early 1900s, which will transport you to the 'way the woods were' and, in many cases, still are.Read about Kinneho, the legend which named Mt. Kineo.Learn the legends of Mt. Katahdin as told by Penobscot Nation Member, Clara Neptune.Find out why Maine lumbermen were superstitious about Whiskey Jack.Discover the history of panthers in Maine.This edition was compiled and edited with new information and photographs by Maine author, Tommy Carbone.You can read more about the Hardy father-daughter team in, "Exploring The Maine Woods - The Hardy Family Expedition to the Machias Lakes."
