Summary | "Canoe and Camera: A Two Hundred Mile Tour Through the Maine Forests" by Thomas Sedgwick Steele is a travel narrative written in the late 19th century. The book chronicles the author’s adventurous canoe trip through the wilderness of Maine, capturing the beauty of nature, the thrill of outdoor sports, and the experiences of camping amidst the stunning landscapes. Steele’s passion for angling and exploration serves as the backdrop for a richly detailed account of his journey. The opening of the narrative sets the stage for an expedition that stems from a deep love for the woods and the natural world. Steele reflects on his early passion for fishing and hunting, ultimately leading him and his companions— including guides and a quartermaster— on a challenging two-hundred-mile canoe trip. He vividly describes the logistics of preparing for such a journey, from the selection of routes and gathering supplies to the essential equipment needed for camping and fishing. Through his initial meditations, he paints a picture of the natural allure of Maine's forests and lakes, inviting the reader to accompany him on what promises to be an immersive adventure filled with exploration and natural beauty.
