KING OF THE FOREST
by Lucinda Marcoux
(Pear Tree Publishing 2009,
$24.95, ISBN: 978-0-9821983-0-8)
A touching story!

“King of the Forest seduces the reader. A new young literary voice emerges in these pages with a compelling tale. It is a love story. In a literary world weary of dysfunctional families, Lucinda Marcoux gives us a family where love transcends the sadness of loss, where bonds between brother and sister become the instruments that heal even as medicine fails. What a wonder of writing when the reader is at once filled with tears and joy! This is a story that causes us to look anew at our own lives and losses and to find meanings that we have missed.”
Jeffrey Colman Salloway, Ph.D.,Department of Health Management and Policy at University of New Hampshire

Edited by Christopher P. Obert

Few copies remaining!

“Replete with numerous family photographs, genealogy reports, charts, and stories of family happenings, this narrative traces the five generations of the Serra family. This is a book that non-family members will pick up to read in order to learn of the lives of recent immigrants as they adapt to the new surroundings and customs so different from those of the ancestral homeland. A non-Serra descendant and non-Italian, this reviewer found the book well done, educational, and just plain fascinating.”
ACD, Book Reviewer, Connecticut Society of Genealogists

BOUND FOR MUNSUNGUN - Family Heirloom Edition
The History of the Early Sporting Camps Of Northern Maine
by Jack Ahern
(Pear Tree Publishing 2009, B&W images
$35.95, ISBN: 978-0-9749291-9-4)
Hard Cover Edition with over 20 pages of new material!

“Jack painstakingly researched his book, which introduces readers to the pioneers, families and guides who earned a living in some of the state’s most unforgiving territory. "Bound for Munsungan" is a bit like the territory it describes: It’s a hard-edged, rustic, no-nonsense account. You don’t find long, flowery passages full of adjectives and descriptions in Ahern’s work. The collected black-and-white photos take care of that brand of heavy lifting. You do learn something new on every page, however, as Ahern walks you though the region’s history and introduces you to people like Will Atkins, Milt Hall, Walter Grau and the Libby family.”
John Holyoke, Bangor Daily News

Sold Out!

Jack Ahern has always had an interest in history. He made his first visit to the Maine woods on a hunting trip to Ripogenus Dam in 1947. After visiting Munsungun Lake at the headwaters of the Aroostook River in 1956, he became a regular guest at the Bradford Camps and has continued to hunt and fish this area for over forty years. While at these camps, many yarns are spun during both the fishing and hunting season. He realized that there was a great deal of history that could be either lost or recorded for future generations. It was evident that the older guides and the camp owners were eager to reminisce about their early years in these Maine woods… These are those stories and tall tales; we hope that you enjoy them!

MOMENTS FALLING OPEN
The Write Group Anthology
Foreword by Gayle C. Heney
(Pear Tree Publishing 2007,
$14.95, ISBN: 978-0-9749291-4-9)

“The social networking dimension of poetry is ubiquitous in Japan, but in America it is a rare phenomenon. The writers of this collection have set the admirable goal for themselves to present a collection that uses a newly devised form known as “specular poetry.” …the discoveries they have made in their group’s exploration of form are worthy of attention, and the larger community should certainly take note.”
Mark Schorr, executive director, Robert Frost Foundation

and Charles Ames Fischer
(Pear Tree Publishing 2006, Full Color,

Poetry by the Greater Haverhill Poets
with artwork by the GHP and local artists.

The Greater Haverhill Poets (GHP) invites you to enjoy this collection of poetry and art. All members worked enthusiastically on the project. Poets are lovers of language, of ideas and artists are visual interpreters of life and ideas. We hope that our readers will find the cooperative effort in this book a perfect blending of these two world views. The Greater Haverhill Poets have been meeting at the Haverhill (Massachusetts) Public Library since the early 1980s. New poets are always welcome to join and to share their work with us. We meet on the third Saturday of each month at the library from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.

THE VISUAL SIDE –
a Collection of Poems,
by Christopher P. Obert
(Pear Tree Publishing 2005, Full Color,
$10.00, ISBN: 0-9749291-2-3)

Poetry and beautiful women go together like the sun and the moon. This book combines the beauty of women and the grace of poetry into one truly enjoyable, retro-1980’s style package. If the poems don’t get you, the images certainly will…
“In his poetry collection, Christopher Obert tries to give the reader visual clues of his poetry on love and rejection… Obert plays the seductive role—like a stripper slowly revealing the layers of himself through his relationships with women. But the often haunting pictures in The Visual Side do indeed add to the poetry and put a face on his passions, making the words more difficult to forget.”
Coralie Hughes Jensen, author of “Passup Point”

REFLECTIONS –
a Collection of Poems & Writings,
by Christopher P. Obert
(Obert Publishing 2005, B&W images,
$14.95, ISBN: 0-9749291-1-5)
Good introduction to poetry book!

“Christopher Obert has written a book of 52 short poems with subjects including nature, war, family and faith. Also included are 18 pages of author notes that provide some terminology (ballad, stanza, couplet), but more importantly, a glimpse into the creative process, which is often fascinating. Obert is honest with his comments, referring to lines with which he is not satisfied, mentioning what he thinks are his best phrases, sharing events that caused a creative spark, or lamenting moments when his concentration has been sidetracked… After reading this enjoyable collection one has a sense of the joys, frustrations, liberations, and limitations all writers face.”
Maribeth Jones, formerly of Addison-Wesley Publishing Company
