Produktinformationen zu „Deer Isle and Stonington (ePub)“
Deer Isle, a coastal town in Penobscot Bay, was settled by farmers and mariners in the 1760s after the end of the French and Indian War. People, freight, and mail came by water to the secluded island where mackerel and lobster fishing were the mainstays of the island,s economy. In the late 19th century, granite from booming Stonington quarries was shipped by boat. Summer visitors began arriving by the boatload to rusticate in gracious inns and seasonal cottages. These became the subjects of vintage postcards, many created by local photographers capturing the views of harbors and towns, rural roads and bridges, masts of the great sailing vessels, and derricks of the large quarries.
Autoren-Porträt von Deer Isle-Stonington Historical Society
Deer Isle and Stonington was compiled by volunteers from the Deer Isle-Stonington Historical Society, drawing on collections of postcards donated and lent by islanders. The society was founded in 1959 and is headquartered in the historic Salome Sellers House in Sunset on the western side of the island.
