Coe Maine Biographies Excerpted from Maine Resources, Attractions, and Its People: A History. In Two Volumes These two volumes of biographical essays appeared originally as Volumes 3 and 4 of Harrie B. Coe's Maine Resources, Attractions, and Its People, published in 1928. The subjects of these 1,400 biographies, most of whom were born during the third quarter of the 19th century, are men who were either natives of Maine or who spent the formative parts of their lives there. As is characteristic of mugbooks of this era, most of the sketches in Maine Biographies give the subject's place and date of birth, his educational background and military service, and then his career, civic interests, church affiliation, hobbies, and so on. In almost every case, the author furnishes the names of the subject's parents, spouse, children, and spouse's parents, usually citing the subject's date of marriage and the dates or places of birth and death of at least these three generations of family members. In most instances, the subject's lineage can be traced back to the first half of the 19th century. Price: $69.95
