This history of Frankfort, Maine and its surrounding areas is detailed and encompassing, beginning from the earliest colonial times and concluding in the early 20th century.

Ada Littlefield's enquiry covers a great range of activity. Topics include the initial founding of Frankfort, the importance in which religious observance was held, the most successful and distinguished residents, and the various businesses and trades for which the area became known. We hear of the ice fishing that took place in the winter months, the homespun clothing that most residents always wore, and of the most interesting houses and their designs.

Perhaps the most notable aspect of Frankfort history is its role in shipbuilding, with many vessels constructed and launched from its shipyards. Some were fitted for long voyages; their success in navigating the oceans established this local industry for the long term. Alongside such achievements, the author places emphasis on the ordinary folk of the town; quoting their turns of phrase, and detailing their customs and everyday lives.

Being first published in 1907, this title carries the advantage of using several sources which have since been lost or obscured for research. More than twenty photographs accompany the text.
