There are said to be only four places in the world where two major rivers - with entirely different watersheds - converge at their mouths to form a common delta: the Sacramento-San Joaquin delta in California, the Tigris-Euphrates delta in Iraq, the Ganges-Brahmaputra delta in Bangladesh and Merrymeeting Bay in Maine which is the least famed of the four, even to people living within its immediate vicinity.
This book explores the ecology, environment, and activities in this unusual bay.
