Chimney Pond Tales: Yarns Told by Leroy Dudley

REVISED EDITION. During the first half of the Twentieth Century, Leroy Dudley, ranger, guide and spinner of tales at Chimney Pond on Maine's Mount Katahdin, enchanted countless outdoor enthusiasts with his yarns about Pamola, the Penobscot Indian god of thunder who protected the mountain. Roy's stories were recorded on wax cylinder by Clayton Hall in the 1930's. They were ultimately brought to print in 1991 (a long story in itself). This self-published book has enjoyed amazing success with sales exceeding 10,000 copies. In celebration of its more than twenty years in print, we offer this new edition, including early photographs of Roy Dudley, Katahdin, and Chimney Pond, a brief history of the book itself, as well as an additional, incomplete Dudley story for you to finish.
