Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the Maine Coast That part of the saline shore of Fairport which lies between Jarvis's and Perkins's wharves, sweeping inward with a flattened curve a scant eighth of a mile, was and is known as Oakum Bay. There were the sailor boarding houses, there the coasting and fishing schooners of the port were beached for submarine repairs, and there was the wide-doored boat-house where three or four old women sat in the sun spinning into yarn the oakum picked from ropes and cables that had been weathered by gales off Cape Horn, bleached in the fiery suns of India and the South Pacific or mildewed by the everlasting fogs of the Grand Banks. Were they endowed with power of speech, full many a tale of perilous adventure might these frag ments of rigging tell as they ignobly passed into their last estate of plebeian oakum to calk withal the seams of the humble craft of the port.

Book Synopsis The Lobster Coast by : Colin Woodard
Download or read book The Lobster Coast written by Colin Woodard and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2005-04-26 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A thorough and engaging history of Maine’s rocky coast and its tough-minded people.”—Boston Herald “[A] well-researched and well-written cultural and ecological history of stubborn perseverance.”—USA Today For more than four hundred years the people of coastal Maine have clung to their rocky, wind-swept lands, resisting outsiders’ attempts to control them while harvesting the astonishing bounty of the Gulf of Maine. Today’s independent, self-sufficient lobstermen belong to the communities imbued with a European sense of ties between land and people, but threatened by the forces of homogenization spreading up the eastern seaboard. In the tradition of William Warner’s Beautiful Swimmers, veteran journalist Colin Woodard (author of American Character: A History of the Epic Struggle Between Individual Liberty and the Common Good) traces the history of the rugged fishing communities that dot the coast of Maine and the prized crustacean that has long provided their livelihood. Through forgotten wars and rebellions, and with a deep tradition of resistance to interference by people “from away,” Maine’s lobstermen have defended an earlier vision of America while defying the “tragedy of the commons”—the notion that people always overexploit their shared property. Instead, these icons of American individualism represent a rare example of true communal values and collaboration through grit, courage, and hard-won wisdom.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “THIS is not a scholarly book in the pedantic sense nor is it intended to be one. Neither is it a complete collection of Maine folklore. Rather, it is a selection of tales, beliefs, superstitions, songs, and customs of people of English-speaking stock in Maine. It is a book that attempts to give illustrations of most of the major aspects of folklore that are, or have been within the last twenty years, extant in the state.”—Horace P. Beck, Introduction “There is no dearth of folklore in the little state of Maine. This book has placed some important examples of folklore into their historical contexts. A diversified sampling is given and we are surprised to learn how much of folklore is a disguise or an exaggeration of the real past.”—Kirkus Review
