The Country of the Pointed Firs by Sarah Orne Jewett
​
A female writer comes one summer to Dunnet Landing, a Maine seacoast town, where she follows the lonely inhabitants of once-prosperous coastal communities. Here, lives are molded by the long Maine winters, rock-filled fields and strong resourceful women.
​
Throughout Sarah Orne Jewett's novel and stories, these quiet tales of a simpler American life capture the inspirational in the everyday: the importance of honest friendships, the value of family, and the gift of community.

Why do we celebrate the Fourth of July? Join us as our guest speaker Joe Hall explains...
​
Joseph M. Hall Jr. is a historian whose teaching and research focus on colonial North America, environmental history, and Native American history, particularly Indigenous-European relations prior to 1850. After publishing a book on trade and gift-giving dynamics in the Southeast (1350–1740), his current work examines how Wabanaki communities preserved ties to their homelands throughout European-American settlement in western Maine, a project pursued in close collaboration with Wabanaki scholars.
