Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, an esteemed historical account, transports readers to the scenic lakes and mountains of northwest Cumberland County, Maine. The author meticulously traces the origins and evolution of four neighboring towns: Otisfield, Harrison, Naples, and Sebago. Beginning with land grants in the 18th century, the book follows these intertwined communities through the arrival of their pioneer settlers, the establishment of their industries, the construction of their churches and schools, and the unfolding of their social and political lives. The author provides a vivid and comprehensive glimpse into the daily lives of these early settlers, their struggles and triumphs, as they shaped the destinies of their towns. The book also explores the broader historical context of the region, including the impact of the Revolutionary War, the growth of industrialization, and the changes brought by the 20th century. The author draws upon a wealth of sources, including town records, personal accounts, and local lore, to offer a rich and nuanced narrative of the region's past. Delving into the themes of community, resilience, and the enduring spirit of rural America, this book not only provides a comprehensive historical account but also offers insights into the founding principles and values that continue to shape these towns today.
