Reproduction of the original: The Popham Colony by Edward Ballard
"The Popham Colony" is written by William Frederick Poole, Frederic Kidder, and Edward Ballard. It is a book in which the arguments for and against the historical claims of the English Colony that landed at the mouth of the Kennebec River, August 19, (O. S.) 1607, are presented in an able and comprehensive manner. The articles, when they appeared in the columns of a daily newspaper, attracted much attention; and, as they contain matters of permanent historical interest, the authors have deemed them worthy of preservation in a collected form.
This travel journal is the fifth book in a series by Tom Marshall describing experiences he and his wife Elysee have had during their summer's away from home. Tom and Elysee practice and indorse a lifestyle captured in the phrase of another of Tom's books, MAKE THE WORLD YOUR SECOND HOME. Although residing in retirement in Naples, Florida for the past ten years, Tom and Elysee have yet to spend a summer there. Instead they live in a different place each year, renting as an option to owning a second home.In the previous ten years they have stayed in Ireland, Australia/New Zealand, Carmel, California, Slovenia, Annapolis, Md., Estonia, and Boothbay Harbor, Maine. These have not been vacations, but residences of three or more months.In this book Tom provides a brief survey of Maine's history and the Boothbay region, describes the activities and events he encountered and participated in, several day trips he took to places of interest nearby, and excursions further afield of several days or more. The book is complimented with numerous photographs, mostly taken by Tom.Any reader contemplating a visit to Maine,and especially to the Boothbay Region would benefit from reading this book.
