This is a double biography of two men--father and son--who left a vivid imprint on the State of Maine. James Phinney Baxter, the father, was six times mayor of Portland, creator of its modern park system, and one of Maine's foremost historians. Percival, the youngest of his six sons, achieved immortality by buying Maine's highest and most beautiful mountain, Katahdin, and 200,000 surrounding acres, leaving it to the people of Maine as a magnificent state park. This is a fascinating look at Maine from the early 1800s to the end of the 1960s.
