by Chris P. Potholm (Author), David Emery (Author), Dennis Bailey (Author)

Twenty-five famous Mainers share humorous stories of everyday life in and about the state of Maine. It's homegrown humor laced with folksy wisdom in the tradition of John Gould and Marshall Dodge. Mainers are born storytellers and they have perfected the art of telling a joke with Down East understatement. These wits recount tales of growing up and growing old in times when politics was more fun and Maine people seemed to know how to better cope with the demands of life and times on the rugged coast, the vast inland forest, and the places in-between.

The twenty-five contributors include well-recognized political names-Maine's current governor, a senator, a former senator, and a former governor-so there's a healthy dose of political stories mixed into the collection of wicked Maine wit. They are illuminating, bittersweet, and laugh-out-loud funny-and they capture the gritty, independent spirit Mainers are known for.

Author Biography

Chris Potholm was a registered Maine guide for twenty years and professor of government at Bowdoin College for fifty. He is author of six books on Maine subjects.

Dennis Bailey has worked for leading Maine politicians in their campaigns and administrations. A native of Livermore Falls, he now lives in Portugal.

Dave Emery has had a lifetime involved in the Maine political scene, serving in the state legislature and US congress and more recently in providing polling services and data. He is a native of Rockland.
