Night Train at Wiscasset Station blends the talents of two highly respected observers of Maine. Although Kosti Ruohomaa's photographic career took him to many distant places, he kept returning home to photograph the enduring people and lifeways of small-town Maine. The late Lew Dietz wrote 19 books about conservation, natural history, and the Maine outdoors.
