The Invisible Stranger: The Patten, Maine, Photographs of Arturo Pattenby: Russell Banks and Arturo Patten

by: Russell Banks and Arturo Patten

Hardcover. NY, Harper, 1st, 1999, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover, 80 pages. In this unique collaboration Arturo Patten, one of the most important portrait photographers of our time, and acclaimed writer Russell Banks visit the hardscrabble north country of Patten, Maine, to study its inhabitants. Patten's haunting portraits of the town's residents evoke characters who exist in Russell Banks's fiction. Banks, the author of Cloudsplitter, The Sweet Hereafter, and Affliction, observes Patten's "characters" from his remote cabin in the Adirondack hills of upstate New York, where he surrounds himself with the thirty-seven portraits and contemplates what they tell us about Patten, Maine, about portraiture, and ultimately about ourselves.

Twelve Thousand Years: American Indians in Maine
by: Bruce J. Bourque

Softcover. Lincoln NE, Bison Books, reprint, 2004, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: None, Softcover, 368 pages. Documents the generations of Native peoples who for twelve millennia have moved through and eventually settled along the rocky coast, rivers, lakes, valleys, and mountains of a region now known as Maine. Arriving first to this area were Paleo-Indian peoples, followed by maritime hunters, more immigrants, then a revival of maritime cultures. Beginning in the sixteenth century, Native peoples in northern New England became tangled in the far-reaching affairs of European explorers and colonists. Twelve Thousand Years reveals how Penobscots, Abenakis, Passamaquoddies, Maliseets, Micmacs, and other Native communities both strategically accommodated and overtly resisted European and American encroachments.
