Father Fell Down the Well (Signed Edition)

For decades, Kendall Morse (1934-2021) was a multitalented entertainment force. Born and raised in Machias, Maine, the grandnephew of a renowned local storyteller, Kendall began telling stories professionally in the early 1970s. He eventually hosted a show on Maine Public Television called In the Kitchen, wrote a book by the same name, and released a popular album called Seagulls and Summer People. Kendall was also a successful folksinger. Three times he was voted Folksinger of the Year by the Maine Country Music Association, was inducted into the Maine Country Music Hall of Fame in 1995, and was nominated for a Grammy in 2009 for his role in the double CD, Singing through the Hard Times, a tribute to Utah Phillips.

“This is a great book for any Downeast Mainer, vacationers, or anyone who loves humorous, homespun tales . . . With all of today’s technology, it is nice to revisit simpler times, where a sense of humor was needed to displace the cares of the day.”––The Miramichi Reader\

"American humor writer Dorothy Parket (1893-1967) once declared that there is a big difference between wisecracking and wit: 'Wit has truth in it; wisecracking is simply calisthenics with words.' Fortunately, Maine humorist Kendall Morse knows the difference . . . Regardless of age or source, these tall tales are knee-slappers."––Bill Bushnell, Kennebec Journal
