Kenneth Roberts: Maine Writer, Historian
Kenneth Roberts was as interesting and complex as the historical novels he wrote. He was much like the irracible, fiercely independent, principled characters that he described in his novels. He was proud of his Maine heritage and the people of Maine became the central characters in his novels. Roberts also did not shy away from controversy, explaining and defending the treason of Benedict Arnold in his novels, writing stinging and controversial articles for the <u>Saturday Evening Post</u>,as well as promoting and documenting the practice of "water dowsing" (detecting underground water supplies by using a forked stick).
