Beautiful!
This book is superb. Packed with spectacular photography and interesting essays regarding Mount Desert Island's history, geography, and ecology. The print quality is first rate; kudos to the publisher. A very inspiring volume which reminds us how important it is to have places like Mount Desert Island and Acadia. Highly recommended from a resident of Maine.

Great book for the photographer visiting Maine
I took this book with me last month when our camera club went on a January trip to Acadia National Park. The photography is outstanding and inspirational to say the least! We visited many of the places shown in this book and were able to take wonderful pictures ourselves. This book inspires one to visit Acadia at any time of the year and I highly recommend it to any photographer or persons who are planning a visit to Mount Dessert Island.

Wonderful Work, Wonderful!
As the owner/operator of Sea Venture Custom Boat Tours here in Bar Harbor I was pleased to be chosen to provide water transport for Mr. Blagden during the creation of this book. Needless to say, I was eager to see the end result. When I finally did I was blown away! A wonderful book chock full of breathtakingly beautiful photos that show a sensitivity to Mount Desert Island's natural beauty that is rarely encountered among those attempting to record its manifold beauties on film. Having conducted bald eagle research on Mount Desert Island for a bit more than 30 years and having hiked every trail, snowshoed every mountain slope, sea kayaked, sailed, and motored more than 100,000 miles worth of watery highways, I am a bit more than familiar with the area. And if anyone has ever done a better job of portraying Acadia's mountains, coastline, streams, forests, meadows, and pathways it must have escaped my attention. Bravo! for a job more than well done.
