Acadia National Park Ethnographic Overview and Assessment Volume 1 and Volume 2 This two-volume historical-ethnographic overview of Acadia National Park spans almost 500 years and covers a wide coastal stretch between Penobscot and Gouldsboro Bays – and sometimes much beyond. Such breadth of coverage is necessary in order to take in the park’s center piece on Mount Desert Island, plus Isle au Haut and Schoodic Peninsula, along with various land holding arrangements (including easements) on numerous offshore sea-islands in this area.1 The study explores the shifting but ongoing relationship between this habitat and Wabanaki peoples – a group of northeastern Algonquianspeaking ethnic groups or tribal nations today distinguished as the Abenaki, Maliseet, Mi'kmaq, Passamaquoddy and Penobscot.

3010Crayon Portraits
  • Reference
  • Other, Photography
We use the term "Crayon Portraits" for a particular type of early enlarged photograph, probably made with a solar enlarger, printed on paper and embellished with charcoal of crayon. There are many kinds of embellished photographs in the collection - everything from tinted tintypes to color postcards with people added to the scenes. It is common to find pencil marks on photographs to "improve" them (and also common to find the fingerprints of early photographers like Henry Rand who made their own prints(, but the term Crayon Portrait used here refers to one specific kind of print. To understand the history and techniques of crayon portaits and painted photographs see - "The Painted Photograph 1839-1914 – Origins, Techniques, Aspirations" by Heinz K. Henisch and Bridget A. Henisch, The Pennsylvania State University Press, 1996.

  • Southwest Harbor Public Library
  • 2017-07-09
Historian, Genealogist, Musician, Boat Builder, Author, Raconteur - there is only one Ralph Stanley. Ralph bears many titles and awards, but for the Southwest Harbor Public Library he is, most of all, a friend. Ralph started using the library as a child and continued as an adult, graduated to Trustee, to President of the Trustees, and, in 2013, became our first Trustee Emeritus. Since 2007 he has spent hundreds of hours patiently identifying people, places and vessels in the Digital Archive. He gave the library his vast collection of photographs, The Ralph Warren Stanley Collection, in 2014. For years he has told us stories of his family, friends and adventures on Mount Desert Island. Archivists have written down almost every word and fact – a treasure for the collection and for the community. This is his chef d’oeuvre, The Stanleys of Cranberry Isles…and Other Colorful Characters, Ralph’s own story, based on his own research and in his own words. To purchase the print version of this book please contact the Southwest Harbor Public Library at archivist@swhplibrary.org or (207) 244-7065.
