First Lines of Stephen Clark's "Katahdin"

"Baxter State Park and Katahdin are unique natural features not only of Maine, but of the Northeastern United States. ... Baxter Park is owned by the people of the State of Maine. The circumstances by which they came into possession of this land its natural wonders are unusual, with few parallels in the history of our country."

- Stephen Clark, Katahdin, A Guide to Baxter State Park & Katahdin

 This book was invaluable for our recent trip to the park. Highly recommend picking it up if you'll be anywhere within Baxter SP.
