Great old Maine outdoor books by awesome authors

GEORGE SMITH’S OUTDOOR NEWS • April 13, 2020

Isolated in our house because of the corona virus, I started pulling favorite old Maine books from my shelves, and enjoying reading them again. The first one was For Maine Only by Edmund Ware Smith, published in 1959. You probably recognize the title of his book The One-Eyed Poacher and the Maine Woods. The second book I pulled off the shelf was Bud Leavitt’s Twelve Months In Maine, published in 1977. My next old Maine book will be John Cole’s In Maine.
