The Lobster Lake Bandits is the
first book in the
Moosehead Mystery Series.
"I loved the whole book and recommend it highly." - - Pat Davidson Reef - The Book Corner, Maine's Journal Tribune


The Elephant Mountain Gang
is the second novel in the
Moosehead Mystery Series. Joe Parker, Sarah, and Warden Henry Ford are back, along with some new characters, involved in a bizarre mystery happening up at Moosehead Lake during the cold of a snowy and icy winter.



From Down East Maine comes a wonderful
memoir about a trip to the Maine woods.
Based on the writing of one of Maine's best
and earliest women authors, this annotated
edition is full of adventure and Maine history.
Available in paperback, case laminate hardcover, and a commemorative dust jacket hardcover.


Lucius Hubbard's Maine travel memoir, "Woods and Lakes of Maine," is full of history and descriptive writing on the outdoors from Moosehead Lake to the Allagash and into Canada. Maine historian, Fannie Hardy Eckstorm, said of Hubbard, "The one person that did more for place names in Maine than Thoreau, was Hubbard."



Do you know the true legends of Katahdin,
Pamola, and Whiskey Jack?
Have panthers ever roamed in Maine?
Who were the women who climbed
Katahdin with Thomas Higginson?
What is the legend of Kineo? And of
Kokadjo?
These questions and more are answered in
this book of stories from Maine writers:
Fannie Hardy Eckstorm &
Manly Hardy
with the poems of Anna Boynton Averill.


Like Hubbard, Thomas S. Steele paddled and
documented his trips through the Maine
North Woods. In this two-book hardcover
edition you will find both of Steel's books
along with added photos and new material.
This is truly a Maine classic that any outdoor
enthusiast will enjoy.
