Told with soul-stirring text and full-color photographs that capture Maine's exquisite natural beauty, the story of Acadia National Park unfolds in this breathtaking volume co-published by Friends of Acadia. Infused with "Down East" humor, lore, and heart, the tale follows one man's personal journey from boyhood to old age as it chronicles his lifelong relationship with Acadia, the first national park east of the Mississippi. Striking images join this heartfelt account to show that Acadia National Park is not only a place to cherish, but a legacy to protect.
