Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Surrounded by rugged mountains and bordered by a beautiful, jagged coastline, the city of Ellsworth and the town of Blue Hill exemplify "Downeast Maine" at its best. Few areas in Maine have retained as much nineteenth-century charm: lighthouses, cottages, gardens, and even a castle enhance the natural beauty of the region, which has always drawn visitors from far and wide. At the same time, Maine traditions of Yankee pride and hard work shine through, with granite quarries and copper mines, as well as busy fishing seasons testifying to the industrious spirit of this coastal people. It is this combination of natural beauty and strength of spirit that has always made the Ellsworth and Blue Hill area one of the most compelling and dynamic regions in all of Maine.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few regions in New England can equal the scenic beauty and rich history of the Blue Hill and Ellsworth region. Situated in Hancock County, in Maine's Down East, the area was settled in the 1760s by hearty settlers harvesting blueberry barrens and fishing the coastal waters. In the 19th century, summer tourists began arriving, and they built elaborate summer estates along Parker Point and Hancock Point. The vintage postcards in this book show scenes of towns around Blue Hill and Ellsworth, such as Franklin, Sullivan, Sorrento, and Lamoine, as well as rare views of the 1933 Ellsworth fire and 1923 flood, Blue Hill Fair, and George Stevens Academy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Metamorphic rocks are well represented by the Ellsworth schist, a series of feldspathic gneisses, schists, amphibolites, quartzites, and hornfelses. The hornfels formed as a result of thermal recrystallization of foliated metamorphic rocks by acid intrusions. Extrusive rocks as flows and pyroclasts are exemplified by the folded Castine volcanics; intrusive rocks are represented by diorite, biotite granite, aplite, and basic dikes.
