The book is 268 pages of the most comprehensive information base about the Park. Baxter Park was first established in the 1930's as a wilderness park by donations from the former Governer of Maine and philanthropist, Percival P Baxter. It now has grown to over 209,000 acres of prime mountain wilderness, located in Northern Maine.
The guide book contains sections on Park history, Indian leagons, Indian place names, geology, birds and animals in the Park, where to see moose, campgrounds, backcountry campsites, streams and ponds in the Park and of course, the 226 mile trail system that reaches the peaks and ponds.

Store description
The story has it that a man from Boston, in trying to hide out from his wife, came to a beautiful place by a river in Western Massachusetts. He thought this was the end of the earth and his wife would not find him here. He named this place Zoar because it was mentioned in the Bible and it was the last letter in the alphabet. It was the last place in the world where she would look. Located on the banks of the beautiful Deerfield River in Charlemont, MA. You can reach the store by coming north or south on Route 91. Take exit 26 to Rt.2W. Follow Rt.2W for about 18 miles. You will pass through the center of Charlemont. Keep going west through 2 "S" curves. At the end of the second "S" curve you will come to bridge with an indian head on it. Take the right turn just before the bridge (Zoar Road) and go 2 miles. After you pass a big grey wall on the right you will see a house on the left right after the wall. It's a White house with a red barn.
