REGISTER HERE

 Author and descendant of the Jordan family, Jim Reeverts’ new book is a historical documentary detailing the lives of the first Jordan’s living on the pond that bears their name. Reeverts and host Raney Bench will discuss the challenges of tracking down primary source materials and his process of weaving a story of family saga from those records.


Chebacco Chats, our weekly web series, features authors, historians, and others who study and celebrate history, the great place that is Mount Desert Island, and the way the island impacts the wider world.

The Chats are live on Zoom, and recordings are made available the week after they air.
