Book Description
Thorndike, ME: Thorndike Press. Very Good. 1968. Soft Cover. 0896210006 . Illustrated by George Loh. 264 pages, illustrations, maps, pictorial wrappers, very good. Reprint. From the publisher: This remote region, once the hunting ground of the Abnaki Indians, still remains a woodman's world of paddle and portage, of wild trout, of the night crying loon. The Allagash story is more than colorful, it is unique in American history. It is rife with many stories - of wilderness lovers like Thoreau, of poachers, of guides, of map-makers, of lumber barons and of game wardens who risked their lives to protect this last bit of American wilderness. A native of Maine, Lew Dietz chronicles them all. Through his love of the out of doors, the sights, the sounds and the smells of the Allagash, its great stands of evergreen, its animal dwellers, Mr. Dietz tells us how the Allagash came to be what it is. .
