Thomas S. Steele's Maine Adventures: Canoe and Camera & Paddle and Portage - Two Book Collection

by Thomas Steele, Tommy Carbone

Overview

Thomas S. Steele wrote two books about his travels by canoe through the north woods of Maine.

Canoe and Camera, was written about his trip in the fall of 1879.

Paddle and Portage told of the trip in 1880.
Both paddles started from Moosehead Lake, but he paddled over different Maine waterways. These stories tell of what it was like to travel through the forest when roads were non-existent, supply depots were limited, and you had to fend for yourself. It is not all that different in these woods today.

Come along for the journey, the stories will entertain you and you might want to visit this magnificent section of Maine for yourself.
This hardcover commemorative edition by Maine author and outdoor enthusiast, Tommy Carbone, is updated with new information, photos, and added maps of the time.

Editorial Reviews

When I saw the title - I had to get this book. This book brought back a lot of great memories of my own time in the north woods, mostly hunting and fishing. I also liked the information Carbone added to the book, and the old photos are really good too.
