On the raw, contested edge of New England, every decree, petition and letter left a trace. These pages remember Maine's beginnings. Documentary History of the State of Maine, Containing the Baxter Manuscripts. Volume VI continues James Phinney Baxter's monumental documentary history collection, gathering colonial Maine history documents from the seventeenth-century frontier and presenting them as a rigorous historical primary source edition. Here, early New England records and other British colonial America sources appear in full, carefully transcribed from Maine State Archives material and sister repositories, forming a rich colonial manuscripts anthology that captures law, land, faith and conflict in the New England colonial era. For family historians, it is an invaluable Maine genealogy reference; for students and scholars, a dependable scholarly research resource within a wider American colonial documents series. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure. This modern reissue honours Baxter's editorial vision while giving today's readers direct access to voices that shaped 17th century Maine history and the wider Atlantic world. Equally suited to the curious general reader and the serious researcher, it belongs on the shelves of anyone drawn to early America, documentary scholarship, or the enduring record of a community being born on the edge of empire.
