Description:  xv, 74 p. : ill., maps ; 23 cm. Notes:  Maps on lining papers. Summary:  "Robert Ritcey's memoir of his boyhood is brimming with evocative details of everyday life in the coastal village of East Petpeswick. Ritcey invites us back to a rural world of small-scale fishing, farming, and logging, of wooden boats and ox-drawn sleds, of one-room schools and party-line telephones. He lovingly describes the sights, sounds, tastes, smells, and textures of his childhood landscape and recalls the hard work and ingenuity of the people who made a modest, independent living on this seabound coast. The Place is a charming portrait of a time now passing out of living memory."-- Provided by publisher Genre:  Memoirs.
