About the Book

Photographer Patrisha McLean moved to the coastal town of Camden, Maine, 18 years ago and found it to be full of characters, in the quirky sense of the word and in terms of the word's other meaning, too—people of character.

With camera and pen, McLean zooms in on 80 of her most memorable neighbors to create timeless portraits of the people that make one Maine town a truly representative slice of American life.
