When I was a little boy, my parents bought a cottage on a small island one mile across the New Meadows River from my grandfather's log cabin. Sheep Island had no electricity, no running water, no roads, no cars and no telephones. I felt it was the most wonderful place in the world. My siblings and I quickly learned the ways of the forested islands and the ocean waters of Casco Bay. The lack of modern conveniences on our island added to a constant feeling of adventure.

Now, decades later, our little island on the coast of Maine has turned out to be one of the only places in America where we can still find freedom from the numbing bombardment of telephones, internet, television, cars, electrical appliances, corporate advertising, and the hard-edged fruits of the industrial world that have come to dominate the quality of life in America. The Stone From Halfway Rock records the history and adventures of our family, and childhood in a simpler time. It also includes a valuable blueprint for the management and ownership of inherited family vacation properties.
