Before Maine was a state, it was a shoreline on the edge of maps and imaginations. Maine begins as a question. In this first documentary history volume, J. G. Kohl assembles a primary source collection that traces the discovery of Maine through the eyes of early visitors, promoters, and record-keepers. Rather than a single narrative, it is a historical documents anthology: the kind of book where names, dates, rival claims and shifting place-names sit side by side, letting the past speak in its own registers. For readers drawn to early Maine exploration and the origins of colonial Maine settlement, these pages offer a grounded path into the Atlantic world that shaped northern New England. It also serves as a practical Maine genealogy reference, pointing you towards the trails left in letters, reports and official papers. You can dip in for atmosphere, or follow the threads of ports, patents and borders as the coast takes shape slowly. Kohl's work stands as a classic tool for New England history research, bridging storytelling and evidence at a time when many colonial New England records were scattered or inaccessible. As a guide through seventeenth century Maine and the wider web of American colonial history sources, it remains invaluable to historians, local-history enthusiasts, and collectors of New England archival documents alike. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike.
