Oral History at its Finest,
By
This review is from: Campobello: Roosevelt's "Beloved Island"
Oral histories are monologues frozen in time, and Muskie's work captures a snapshot of Campobello and its people around twenty years after, thanks to the construction of the Rainbow Bridge, it was connected to the mainland, and had started to lose its island identity.
While the first chapter quotes heavily from Alden Nowlan's Campobello: The Outer Island, the rest of the book is a mixture of oral histories and full color photographs that capture the color of the community, from the sardine cannery to the fishing weirs to the centers of religion to the stories behind the scenes at Roosevelt International Park. |
