On Thursday, July 10, Maine-based author Van Reid will talk about his series of historical novels “The Moosepath League”Set in the state of Maine in the late 19th century, the novels on the surface are comic novels, but contain strong elements of adventure, mystery, romance and the occasional brush with the supernatural.  

Three corners of Van Reid’s family settled in the District of Maine in the 18th century, one corner of which has been in Edgecomb since the early 1800s. The fourth corner arrived from Norway a thousand years after the Vikings. Van Reid grew up in a storytelling family and has attempted to infuse the spirit (and occasional details) of those stories into seven novels. 

We invite you to join us at 4:30 p.m. at the Boothbay Town Office, 1011 Wiscasset Road, Boothbay. Seating is limited, call 633-0820 Wednesday-Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. or email info@boothbayhistorical.org to reserve your seating.
