{"product_id":"wiscasset-and-its-times-phil-di-vece-9781479386741","title":"Wiscasset and Its Times","description":"From Colonial times to the present, the Town of Wiscasset has played an important part in Maine's history. Here for the first time is a timeless collection of stories, told with warmth and wit, about the Shire Town of Lincoln County. Mr. Di Vece takes the reader on a journey through the town's colorful past, introducing people, places, and events in danger of being forgotten and lost forever to today's generation. There's a story of the whistle-stop visit by President Ulysses S. Grant, and another about a 19th century newspaper started by a pair of teenage publishers. Read about Luther Little, naval hero of the Revolutionary War and namesake of a 4-masted schooner left abandoned at the Wiscasset waterfront. Legends of lost treasure, witches, and magical springs are recounted, along with the story of a Wiscasseter who faithfully kept a daily journal for over 50 years. Illustrated with many rare photographs, this book is a must for anyone who's ever visited and fell in love with \"Maine's Prettiest Village.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Phil Di Vece\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 147938674X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781479386741\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 284\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.60d","brand":"Phil Di Vece","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43941428068607,"sku":"9781479386741","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_a5d4fed4-6f0d-4fd2-94dc-a984d0b01e2f.jpg?v=1681452872","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wiscasset-and-its-times-phil-di-vece-9781479386741","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
