Published in 1920, this book is a detailed exploration of Mount Desert Island, located off the coast of Maine. Eliot, a noted educator and president of Harvard University, was a passionate advocate for conservation and outdoor recreation. In this work, he argues for responsible and sustainable development of the island, including the creation of a national park. Eliot's ideas and arguments were highly influential in the eventual establishment of Acadia National Park on Mount Desert Island.
