"Nooks and Corners of the New England Coast" by Samuel Adams Drake is a historical account written in the late 19th century. The book explores the intricate history and natural beauty of the New England coastline, focusing particularly on its harbors, islands, and the accounts of early explorers and settlers. With an emphasis on specific locations like Mount Desert Island and Penobscot Bay, Drake aims to capture the essence and heritage of this significant region in American history. The opening of the book sets the stage with a poetic description of the New England coastline, particularly Maine, where the landscape is described as both rugged and inviting. Drake introduces the historical context by discussing ancient names attributed to the area, such as Norumbega, and references the various European explorers who shaped the region’s early history. He provides insight into the geography and natural features that make New England’s coast distinct, setting a tone of reverence for both its beauty and historical significance.
