The Moosehead Lake region has long been a place where travelers go to escape. In the first half of the twentieth century, the region became a mecca for hunters and fishermen, as well as for travelers looking for rest and relaxation at popular resorts such as the Mount Kineo House. The Moosehead Lake Region: 1900-1950 uses vintage photographs to tell the story of this Maine retreat. The images depict visitors and residents of Greenville, Shirley, Rockwood, Beaver Cove, and Kokadjo; the lumbering era in the North Woods; and the locomotives whose whistles pierced the wilderness.

The pristine natural beauty of the Moosehead Lake Region is legendary. Towering white pines, clear, free-flowing rivers, rugged, massive Mount Kineo, and the unforgettable, stunning expanse of the lake itself have offered spiritual renewal to civilization-weary people for centuries. This fascinating visual history captures the essence of the Moosehead Lake Region, and reveals the many people and places that have been important in the area's past. Included are photographs of the grand hotels and the Mount Kineo House; the steamboats that plied the waters of the lake; camps such as Camp Lucky and Camp Comfort; Henry Red Eagle and the hermit of Moose Island, John Cussack. The accompanying captions include a wealth of information as well as excerpts from interviews with people who spent their lives on and around Moosehead Lake.
