The lives of authors Ruth Moore and Eleanor Ruth Mayo were their own, but their private lives and the lives they led on Mount Desert Island, were so intertwined that archivists find it difficult to divide documents, stories and photographs between them. It is for this reason that this Item exists in the database. It ties together other Items that relate more to both women than to either as an individual. “Homesick For That Place: Ruth Moore Writes About Maine” by Jennifer Craig Pixley is so well conceived that it may be recommended to those who are interested in Ruth and Eleanor above many other works, but there is much to be learned from everything included here.

Bar Harbor - When the archaeologists of summer probe the fragile layers of Great Gott Island history, they say the faint bark of an Indian dog is freed. It was Maine writer Ruth Moore who first imagined the dog's bark, as she sifted through the sand and sod on her native Great Gott Island, pausing later to reflect on the island's history in her poem, "The Indian Shell Heap":
