(Audio only) The James Phinney Baxter
Award was given to Larry Glatz
for his article to the MHS Journal,
Maine History (Vol. 42, No. 3):
“The Century of the Oxford Bear:
Party Politics, Patronage, and the
popular Press in Creating Maine
County Identity, 1820-1920.”
The article is a wonderful
exploration of what he calls
“the rise and demise of countyism.”
