Roger Duncan recounts four hundred years of Maine's rich maritime
history, from the early seafarers' discovery of its valuable
resources and the families that settled the land, to Maine's role
in the history of the US in peacetime and in war. He traces the
changes in Maine's economy over the past century: the demise of the
coastal trade; the burgeoning popularity of pleasure boating after
World War II; the hardships that beset the fishing and lumber
industries; and the rise of tourism. This anecdotal panorama of
people, land, boats, and water will absorb historians, nautical
enthusiasts, and New Englanders alike.
