Publisher's Synopsis
Gorham, Bridgton and Beyond The Personal Maine Narrative of Jonathan M. Ray Author Jonathan M. Ray takes the reader to Gorham, Maine in the 1950's and 1960's, and then to Bridgton, Maine in the 1970's-2000's. Along the way there are side trips to Sugarloaf, Moosehead Lake, Mount Katahdin, Old Orchard Beach, and Colby College. Included in personal narrative is a brief genealogy of the Ray and Backman families along with New England visits to Mount Washington and the Phillips Exeter Academy in New Hampshire, and the Massachusetts towns of Lanesville (Gloucester) and Arlington. Ted Williams and baseball card collecting are also featured. Filled with maps and photos, the memoir goes beyond Gorham and Bridgton and concludes with future generations.
