the Back Cover --
Jack Ahern has always had an
interest in history since his high school years. After his discharge
from the Navy in 1946, he made his first visit to the Maine woods on a
hunting trip to Ripogenus Dam in 1947. After visiting Munsungun Lake at
the headwaters of the Aroostook River in 1956, he became a regular guest
at the Bradford Camps and has continued to hunt and fish this area for
over forty years. While at these camps, many yarns are spun during both
the fishing and hunting season. He realized that there was a great deal
of history that could be either lost or recorded for future generations.
It was evident that the older guides and the camp owners were eager to
reminisce about their early years in these Maine woods…
