According to William Hutchinson Rowe, Ancient North Yarmouth has been neglected in histories of the coast line of Maine. This book fills that gap. "It is not a genealogical treatis e nor a documentary history, merely an attempt to bring the story, much of it never told before, in a concise, accurate narrative to those who love the town or whose family roots are deep in its soil." It covers three hundred years and includes the town's early development; involvement in the Revolution, War of 1812, Civil War and World War I; shipbuilding days; railroads; churches and religious societies; fraternal, patriotic and civic organizations; and educational, industrial, commercial and professional development. Illustrations, appendices and a subject, place, and fullname index are included. The book is presented as graphic images, so the user sees the work just as it was originally published. It is intended to look and function very much like a "real" book. There is no electronic index, and there is no electronic text to search. However, numerous electronic bookmarks have been added which make it easy to move through the book. Image numbers will match the page numbers for all of the main text, as well as the index. Any unnumbered portraits and illustrations are at the back of the actual file, to keep page numbering consistent. This is a tangible media product shipped via mail.
