Abstract

"There and Back" piece reflecting on growing up with old-fashioned, Down East technology. The author recounts being impressed by technological inventions such as the outboard motor, the block-and-tackle pulley, and a TV antenna that would swing in any direction. Sherm Ames, who worked in a machine shop in Rockland, was a master of homegrown technology.
