Russian Voices on the Kennebec

Maine's first Russian settlement soon became the largest rural Russian-speaking community in the United States."--BOOK JACKET. "This book, illustrated with photographs taken during the heyday of the settlement, is the first to be published about these vital settlers and the life of their historically unique colony. At the core of the book are personal stories of individual immigrants, told in their own words, at times passionate and moving, at times humorous and self-disparaging."--BOOK JACKET.
