Více o knize
The book showcases the diverse history and development of Orono, a central Maine town established in 1806. Initially a farming community, it transformed into an industrial hub due to the nearby Penobscot and Stillwater Rivers. The establishment of Maine's land grant university in 1865 further shaped its identity. As the 20th century approached, the town shifted from lumbering to papermaking, a significant industry that persisted until the end of World War II, highlighting Orono's evolution over time.
