Book excerpt: Excerpt from Documentary History of the State of Maine, Vol. 17 O again resume the publication of the Documentary History of Maine, though a somewhat exacting task de manding time which I cannot well spare, is a great satisfaction, as I can see a prospect of being able to finish the work to which I set my hand many years ago. This volume, as it contains a large portion of the account of the grave disaster which befell the State in the mismanaged Penobscot Expedition, will, I believe, be welcomed by students of Maine history.
