Sands, Spindles, and Steeples : A History of Saco, Maine

Fairfield, Roy P.

A history of the coastal and industrial city of Saco, Maine, from its inception to the 1950s. Written by a Saco native. The inside cover reads: "In a rich and vivid history, documented with record, with facts bearing evidence of infinitely rewarding research, Roy P. Fairfield has depicted Saco from its beginning up to the fast-moving present wherein, even now, remains a nostalgic aura of simpler days along elm-shaded streets that have seen three centuries of pulsing life. And throughout this volume, striking for its fidelity to place and time and atmosphere, the author has never for a moment lost sight of that irreplaceable thing - the human dimension."
