Maine's Historic Places fills that gap. Compiled by the staff of the Maine Historic Preservation Commission. This one volume describes all the Maine properties on the National Register of Historic Places and is loaded with fascinating historical and architectural highlights. Seven regional maps and 226 photographs from the commission's archives make Maine's Historic Places an ideal introduction to the best-preserved examples of Maine's hstory. You'll want to keep this book handy whenever you travel through the state of Maine. Maine authors.
