Beyond fiction and limerick, stereotype and speculation, here's an authentically imaginative account of how some Maine folk live in love with nature, from youth through old age, until and after they die. To catch lifetimes of physical and spiritual devotion in reverent and irreverent poetry is both natural and rare. No one before now, here, has done it this way - a cultural document as well as bedside reader - to cherish for generations.

STILL MILL is a one-of-a-kind account documenting the birth and evolution of a world-class papermaking culture, and the shocking, sudden destruction of that whole culture as told by generations of the people, ourselves. Our history. Our sociology. Our strengths, beliefs and humanity. Our music. Our Maine and our America. Most of all, our working class testament of pain and pride - a privilege to collect and protect.
