A collection of Isaac Simpson photography reveals, as never before, the sweep and detail of life on New England's last frontier at the turn-of-the-century.Glass-plate photography at its best Geraldine Tidd Scott has collected and interpreted images of turn-of-the-century Maine. The book captures Maine people: their families, their neighbors, their homes, their social gatherings, their work-farming, lumbering, railroading, shoemaking, and other industries of the past. Where time has rendered an occupation out of date, historic quotations complement the photography to describe them in detail.
