1899 · Bangor, ME
by Sprague, John.
Bangor, ME: Charles H. Glass, 1899. Biographical sketches of 17 Mainers, important in their day, forgotten by now - except for maybe Hiram Maxim, inventor of the machine gun - brought back to life by Sprague's excavations. Front hinge cracked but holding, else a pretty book in very good condition. Williamson's Maine Bibliography lists several titles by Sprague, but not this one. . 22.5 cm. (6), 102 pp. (Inventory #: 47597)
