randomalia's ""The Maine Mirror" Top 100 Maine Books"

One Hundred distinguished books that reveal the history of the state of Maine and its people. The idea for the list of Top 100 Maine books came from the Baxter Society, the state’s only bibliophilic organization. It covers four centuries and all genres, from novels to histories.
