"Maine built more ships, by total tonnage, than any other state on the East Coast, and by 1855, a third of the vessels produced in the United States were built in Maine. Down-easters from midcoast Maine carried miners to the California goldfields, ice to India, and wheat to Europe." —From the Introduction
