Their "Atlas & Gazeteer" of Maine is pretty much a "must have" in this state. Everyone has one. People refer to places as "it's page 14 in the Gazeteer." I've visited the Delorme offices and it's a pretty impressive place. They have a retail store there - -quite a worthwhile visit. It's not far from LL Bean if you're in that area ever.
