Synopsis

Canoe and Camera: A Two Hundred Mile Tour Through The Maine Forests is a travelogue written by Thomas Sedgwick Steele in 1882. The book chronicles Steele's journey through the forests of Maine, which he undertook with his friend and fellow photographer, William Dinwiddie. The two men traveled by canoe, camping along the way and documenting their experiences with a camera. Steele's writing is descriptive and vivid, painting a picture of the rugged beauty of the Maine wilderness. He also provides insight into the challenges of traveling through the forest, including navigating rapids and portaging around obstacles. The book is illustrated with photographs taken by Steele and Dinwiddie, giving readers a glimpse into what life was like in the Maine woods in the late 19th century. Overall, Canoe and Camera is a fascinating account of a journey through a remote and untamed landscape, and a testament to the spirit of adventure and exploration that drove Steele and Dinwiddie to undertake it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

This act slightly dampened my ardor for some months, and retarded that progression in field sports I was then making.
