Book is covered with loose tan canvas cloth hand stitched to keep it on the front and back covers. Inside the front cover, under the cloth cover flap is written: "Capt Nathan King 1854 bought book of East Trenton Maine." With several other pencil notations on first four pages. First one states: "Purchased this book from the Lewis Stanley Estate (Less White S. West Harbor) and paid $1.00 for same - Mrs. Mary Alice White, Cranberry Isles, ME June 18th, 1957." Second states: "Purchased of Capt. Nathan King Dec 20th 1866, M. J. Richardson." Third states: "This book belonged to Carrie (Stanley) Richardson daughter of Enoch B. Stanley and her son was Charles (Peter) Richardson Cranberry Isles, Maine." (This third note seems to be in the same handwriting as the first note by Mary Alice White.) There are several other notations, calculations, and also newspaper clippings pertaining to new lighthouses on the first several pages and the last two pages. Other notations:" Feb 23 1867 6 days out from NY bound for [Goanives?] St. Demingo Latt 27.45." "26th Jan 1867, 4 days out from Boston made Bermuda."
