Twelve Miles from the Rest of the World, by Barnaby Porter and Al Trescot, is a portrait of a Maine tidal river as observed, experienced and "Sketched" for over thirty five years. It is a very intimate view from the bottom up, revealing underwater vignettes, life along the shore and the surrounding landscape as a continuum.

The Damariscotta River is a drowned river valley of great age. While the author celebrates the river of today as a self-contained world of rich diversity, he at the same time tries to put the short history of our tenure here into perspective and encourages the reader to imagine how the river has evolved over the centuries.

We strongly urge you to first take "the grand tour" and enjoy the view, then to spend some time pondering the moods, the seasons and the miracles that make the Damariscotta River the natural treasure it is.
