Keene on Red Beach The St Croix Historical Society

Immerse yourself in simpler times with this anthology of articles about life in rural coastal Maine at the turn of the 20th century. Written by prolific local journalist Fred Keene as he reflected back on his life, each article captures the charm and challenges related to country living. Along with daily affairs such as attending school and working in the granite and lumber industries, Keene freely lends his poetic pen to reminiscences of childhood and the beauty of the rugged wilderness that surrounds Red Beach.
