Pinkham grew up in western Maine, hearing old stories of hunting and fishing and has spent much of his life hiking, paddling and discovering the many wonderful places in the backwoods of Maine. Having spent the past 10 years searching for articles and books, following up on clues and spending a vast amount of hours in libraries and historical societies, he published his first book “Mountains of Maine” in 2009. Selecting from his vast collection for this book, he now spends his time writing and publishing articles and books about the Maine woods from his home in Quincy, Massachusetts.
