The Swedish Colony historical societies originally produced this booklet with help from a Maine Arts Commission and Maine Community Foundation grant, so we were able to offer books from the original printing for free. When the original printing was gone, we paid for a second printing. So we must pass the cost along. However, the entire text is available online.
