Publisher's Synopsis
Kin of Ktaadn: Verse Stories of the Plain Folk Who Are Keeping Bright the Old Home Fires Up in Maine is a book written by Holman F. Day and published in 1904. The book is a collection of verse stories that tell the tales of the people living in rural Maine, particularly in the area around Mount Ktaadn. The stories are written in a rustic, colloquial style that aims to capture the dialect and way of life of the people in this region. The characters in the stories are portrayed as hardworking, honest, and deeply connected to their land and community. The book offers a glimpse into a way of life that was rapidly disappearing at the turn of the 20th century, as industrialization and modernization began to change the face of rural America. Overall, Kin of Ktaadn is a charming and nostalgic tribute to a simpler time and a way of life that has all but vanished.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
