The attempt in this book has been to tell the story of the founding of Union, a small Maine town, by ordinary people, in what was then an ordinary way. It was the way in which towns were founded from the Atlantic seaboard west to the great plains, by stripping off the forest and putting the land to work. The people in this book were not individually as important as George Washington; the town they founded was not as important as New York. But people like them made this country, and towns like this one were and are the soil in which this country’s roots are grounded. The Union Historical Society has undertaken the reprinting of Come Spring to ensure that this important historical novel remains available to readers. We feel we have a unique situation in our village; most of the sites mentioned in this story still exist and many of the descendants of those first families continue to live here in Union. We are committed to sharing this history through preservation and education.
