The Land of Norumbega - Maine in the Age of Exploration and Settlement.
An Exhibition by Susan Danforth, Maine Humanities Council, Portland, Maine 1988.
This exhibition began in 1986, when the University of Southern Maine received an extraordinary collection of rare maps, atlases, and globes donated by Lawrence M.C. and Eleanor Houston Smith. In 1987, in response to a call from the National Endowment for the Humanities for programs relating to the Columbian Quincentenary, the Maine Humanities Council submitted a proposal for the "Land of Norumbega" project.
