Before Maine had borders, it had letters. Read Maine as it was. Documentary History Of The State Of Maine (Volume III) brings together the celebrated Trelawny Papers in a rigorous historical document collection: an archival correspondence volume that preserves the voices shaping land, trade, governance, and daily survival along a contested coast. Presented as Trelawny papers transcripts, it reads as a primary source anthology of petitions, reports, and official exchanges that illuminate colonial Maine history within the wider currents of colonial New England. Here are early Maine settlement records in their original documentary context, where local disputes and imperial policy collide and where the practical language of authority reveals the anxieties of a frontier society. Edited by James Phinney Baxter, this academic history sourcebook remains a cornerstone for 17th century Maine studies, drawing lines between provincial practice and the larger record-keeping worlds of the Massachusetts Bay Colony records and the broader provincial papers collection. For historians it is evidence; for family historians it is a durable genealogy research reference; for any reader curious about how places are argued into being, it is a vivid archive with human stakes. 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.
