Penobscot Marine Museum Education Director Jeana Ganskop gives an introduction to the 19th-century logging industry in Maine and the schooners and other sailing vessels that transported Maine lumber along the coast and around the world. The talk will trace the close relationship between lumber and water, map the destinations of lumber from Maine, and share some stories of individual lumber schooners. This presentation will draw from PMM’s rich artifact, print, and photo collections. This talk took place on Tuesday, April 30, 2024 and completed that annual Maritime Month series at the Camden Public Library.
