Perry, ME Downeast Enterprises 1999 First Edition Soft Cover Very Good Signed by Author
Xiv,433 pages, well illustrated, pictorial wrappers, very good. Signed by author. Account of the author's life in and away from Perry, Maine. A member of the Maine Running Hall of Fame, he has organized numerous road races in eastern Maine, including the Perry to Eastport 7 Miler, which has been held every Fourth of July since its inaugural run in 1970. From the rear cover: "The book is a true story. It begins in 1948 on a landmark day for Clyde, aged 11, in the little town of Perry Maine. It is a book of adventures and it is a love story. Meet Clyde's family, his neighbors, other people and events that greatly influenced his life. Laugh, cry, be angry, or rejoice with him as he digs clams; describes changes through fifty blueberry harvest seasons; enjoys years of friendship with the Passamaquoddy Indians; struggles through high school; survives at Maine Maritime Academy; plays baseball; and finds great enjoyment with long distance running. Learn how storms at sea, the Vietnam War, meeting disabled American Veterans from four wars, and visiting Nagasaki, Japan crated daydreams for a white haired clam digger. Completing cycles with the 400+ pages and 200+ pictures are family stories common to many people. ~ Many people with roots in Downeast Maine (especially if the great depression, World War II, and other wars touched their family) will thoroughly enjoy the book." ; Signed by Author
