Forever Yours, Boston

Earl Brechlin, a long-time Maine journalist, has written several nonfiction books featuring Maine, including hiking guides, Forever Yours, Bar Harbor, and Forever Yours, Boston, books of antique postcard images. After graduating from the University of Maine, Brechlin moved to Mount Desert Island where he worked as an island gardener. After first taking a job in the print shop, he soon rose to serve as editor of The Bar Harbor Times for nearly twenty years and was then founding editor of the Mount Desert Islander in 2001. Brechlin, now communications director for Friends of Acadia, is also a registered Maine Guide, a model railroad enthusiast, and sometimes attends comic book conventions to tout his Ancient Alien Expert business, offering interested parties potential degrees in Ancient Astronaut Theory, Cryptozoology, Zombie Survival, and Middle Earth History. He lives in Bar Harbor with his wife Roxie, a retired kindergarten teacher.

"Countless books have been written about Boston, but few have done it as cleverly as "Forever Yours, Boston" by Bar Harbor author Earl Brechlin [. . .] Brechlin's collection is stunning for its variety of subject and interest."
