- "This gorgeous history of a venerable Maine business
contains more thrills and spills, twists and turns than a day
at the annual Kenduskeag Stream Canoe Race." Dick Shaw,
Bangor Daily News
- "This is the fascinating story of a family company,
artfully retold in a book meant for sharing-an armchair departure
point for reminiscences.... Once settled into a comfortable chair
with this book opened and the story beckoning, it is all too easy
to be swept up in the romantic legacy of the Old Town canoe."
Nancy McGinnis, Central Maine Newspapers
The
Old Town Canoe Company has a rich and diverse history
now spanning a century, and its story is told here in rich and
colorful detail, from the earliest wood-and-canvas canoes to
today's sleek polymer models. Wonderful illustrations and motifs
have been selected from a hundred years of
Old Town Canoe Company
catalogs, along with stunning photographs, past and present,
of Old Town's canoes, launches, runabouts, dinghies, sailboats,
kayaks, and more.
