From Down East to Midwest:
The Memoirs of Margaret Sewall Hector (1889-1977)
Raised the daughter of a prominent shipbuilder, Margaret Sewall Hector enjoyed a childhood filled with ship launchings, pleasure trips, and elegant parties at her family's mansion in Bath, Maine. When her schooling took her to the fashionable Miss Chamberlayne's boarding school in Boston, Margaret met a friend who would change her life forever. Faced with her most difficult decision, she traded the bustling river banks of Maine for the quiet plains of North Dakota, where her part in the development of Fargo-Moorhead's airport is still remembered. But her greatest gift of all can be found in the historic memories she left behind.
