Mr. Geo:oge B. Dorr, Superintendent Acadia National Park Bar Harbor, Maine Dear Mr. Dorr: It was with great pleasure that we recently learned of the publication of your book, ACADIA NATIONAL PARK, ITS ORIGIN AND BACKGROUND; and we have hoped that we mirht exa~ine a copy, but, having- been unable to ascertain the publisher, we now write to inquire whether or not this is a government publication. We want to purchase a copy for the library files, for such an item will be extremely valuable to us. It ls also possible that you may wish to inscribe and present a copy to the Maine Authot> Collection. Perhaps you already know of this exhibit of the works of people born in Maine, resident here, or writing about the state. The books are in:'cri bed interestir..gly and originally, presented to the library for exhi-~it purposes only, and form an unusual representation of Maine writing. VVe should be happy to include a copy of your book, and trust that it will be possible. You ha~e our best wishes for the success of the volume. We hspe it may reach the many people who will ~ndoubtedly be interested in the account of your fascinating work and notable achieve•rent at Acad1 a National Park. Very truly yours Y1AINE STA'I'E LIDRP.F:Y BY
