Founded as one town, Bath and West Bath have gone their separate ways since 1844. While the western part of town remained agricultural, the eastern part - stretched along the Kennebec River - became active in shipbuilding and maritime trade. After their separation, eastern Bath went on to become a thriving city, while the farms of West Bath eventually mingled with summer camps and cottages.

This beautiful new book by author Joyce K. Bibber brings to life the glories of Bath's shipbuilding era and introduces us to the people, places, and events which defined Bath and West Bath from the 1850s to the 1950s. The author has gathered together, from both public and private collections, over two hundred fascinating images which show how much, and how little, has changed in these proud communities over the decades. As we revisit the past through the pages of this compelling visual history, we are brought face to face with the Bath area's rich and colorful heritage. It is a journey that will delight resident and visitor alike.
