All's for the Best: The Civil War Reminiscences and Letters of Daniel W. Sawtelle

Clean inside and out. In great shape. From the dust jacket front flap: "At the outbreak of the Civl war, Daniel Withum Sawtelle was a young man working on his family's farm in the north woods of Maine. The Republican son of a Democrat, he initially took little notice of a war he assumed would be over almost as soon as it started. As the conflict wore on, however, he began to disagree vehemently with his father about the future of the nation. Finally, in February 1862, he enlisted in the Eighth Maine Infantry. Fifty years later, Sawtelle drew on his wartime correspondence to compile a memoir of his experience."

Disappearance of Amy Cave, The: A True Account of Murder and Justice in Maine (SIGNED COPY)


Flagg, Pat

Hardcover. Camden, Maine, Down East Books, 1st, 2000, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, Hardcover, 260 pages, bright, unclipped dust jacket. When Amy Cave was reported missing and later discovered murdered, it was difficult for the police and reporters to keep their emotional distance. The controversial sexuality of the killer and the tragic nature of the story made that impossible. Once the headlines had faded and the legal proceedings were ended, local reporter Pat Flagg delved further into the background and the aftermath of the high-profile case. In this book she revisits the investigation, arrest, and trial in fascinating detail. SIGNED BY FLAGG on half-title page. Small ink notation on front fly leaf otherwise clean.
