There is a special feeling to the Allagash; a sense of adventure, the thrill of getting away from it all! But in the dark of night there is something else. A shadow lingers, hiding beyond the reach of the lantern’s fingers of light. It remains obscure in the midst of the evergreens and old growth. Among the campfires and s’mores, a bone chilling draft embraces all. Shivering, we draw our coats tighter to protect against the rawness. In this mystery adventure, journey with ten-year old Olivia as her family continues to canoe the world famous Allagash River. In the prequel to the popular An Allagash Haunting, they’ve only been on the water for four days and already Livy has experienced enough to last a lifetime. She can’t believe all that has happened, right in the middle of no-where.   
Price is $14.95 + $.75 Sales Tax =$ $15.70. If you wish to pay by check please add $3.50 for shipping. Be sure to let Tim know how it should be autographed. |

Power Point Programs Now Available
"Allagash Tails and Tales" This is a multi-media presentation intended for any school, library, civic organization who would like to have a discussion about our Allagash Tails Collection of books, and one of our nation's premiere Wild and Scenic Rivers. Narrated by author and former Waterway Supervisor Tim Caverly, the show includes music, scenic and historic photographs as well as stories detailing Tim's personal experiences while living in the woods. Canoeing down the river, people will experience the Allagash in a whole new way. While the visual portion of the program lasts about an hour, Tim is also available to do readings from one of the Allagash Tails books. Accompanied by the artistry of Franklin Manzo Jr, the program has been very well received. By the spring of the 2012 school year, in addition to libraries and civic organizations, Tim had given 57 programs and reached out to 1800 students. But talking about the books isn't enough for the Allagash Tails guys. To date, with the support of the King Foundations, banks, health organizations and civic organizations there have been over 1428 books donated to 83 Maine schools Our presentation normally last from 45 to 60 minutes, but we are willing to modify it to fit time spaces available. We are now scheduling programs through out New England for 2012-2013. If you would like more information or to arrange a visit, please e-mail us through this website site or call Tim at (207) 907-0517

These two stories are the first in a series that are based on animal antics that Caverly and his family witnessed while living in the Allagash Wilderness Waterway. Marvin the MerganserThe Marvin the Merganser tale was inspired one night while my family was sitting on the shore of Churchill Lake watching moose. We heard a strange noise, and in a short time a baby Merganser swam by with a clam closed on its bill. The duck was trying to quack with its mouth shut, and the sound was not like anything we had heard before. Charlie the Whitewater Beaver of the Allagash The story about Charlie is based on a Beaver who, one summer, seemed to delight in living along Chase Rapids and swimming among the canoes. He overcomes his disabilities to help others and in return helps himself. |
