Synopsis
This definitive collection will be a great read for Maine residents and anyone else who enjoys local humor and trivia with a twist., Prominent humor writers and media personalities comb their home states for the most wacky and outrageous people, places, and things in this sassy series of state almanacs-gone-astray. Discover what is really great about the state -- places they overlooked on school field trips, people with odd and amazing talents, history that was left out of the books, a wealth of weird wonders the reader never dreamed existed.Well-loved Down East humorist Tim Sample reveals the wild and wacky side of Maine. Describing approximately 300 oddities -- people, places, animals, historic tidbits, and trivia -- his witty narrative not only entertains but also provides choice material to repeat at cocktail parties. Maine is full of curious phenomena, and Tim Sample is the man to tell the world about them. From the Society for the Preservation of the Black Fly to the Top Ten Maine Geezers and a jeweler whose medium is moose droppings, Sample's unique perspective on the quirky side of Maine will make you laugh out loud. This definitive collection will be a great read for Maine residents and anyone else who enjoys local humor and trivia with twist.
