Listed under New England GenealogyDown on the Island, Up on the Main: A Recollected History of South Bristol, Maine
by Ellen Vincent
Book Description: When Ellen Vincent set out to document a working town’s history, she hoped to find a place where the families and traditions were part of a generations-old continuum. South Bristol, Maine, a coastal village that spans shore and islands, is just such a place. Sometimes idyllic, at other times laden with hardship, this was a community where self-sufficiency was a virtue and neighbors were as family.The oral history project that Vincent began grew as school children became involved in learning their parents’ and grandparents’ stories, a local historical society was begun, and a culminating exhibit of photos and artifacts and reminiscences drew just the response Vincent had hoped for: mixed-generation groups of people clustered around the photos and stories, putting their fingers onto them, talking and laughing and teary-eyed. Many wrote down their own memories and pinned them up on the walls. The community had come together to create a collective memory of place, spoken in the words of its people. Their strength of character and unflagging humor has carried them through many decades, and it resonates in the cadence of their tales.
Now between the covers of a book, this recollected history and its 300 vintage photographs brings you the heritage and stories of one town—but they are stories and images that will echo up and down the coast of Maine.

A Day's Work: A Sampler of Historic Maine Photographs, 1860--1920, Part II
by W. H. Bunting
Book Description: These extraordinary collections of photographs and narrative captions have wide appeal to anyone interested in Maine's past. Spend an afternoon with either volume of A Day's Work, and you'll make discoveries that will change how you look at Maine's passing scene. Bunting has a knack for spotting the unusual in a photograph, or some minor detail that, in fact, tells a major story about the how and why. From granite quarry operations to an itinerant cobbler in a sailing scow to hootchie cootchie dancers at the state fair to deepwater ships, his page-long captions place these images in social and economic context—but this is not dry history. His research has uncovered a wealth of fascinating, often quirky detail (did you know that mummy wrappings were imported from Egypt for Maine papermaking?), and he makes frequent forays into the Maine storytelling tradition.
