As promised, Asa’s World Tour of Maine has returned to Paris! And this time we are at the correct library in the Paris Hill Historic District of South Paris, Maine!

Named after Carthage, the ancient Mediterranean city in what is today Tunisia in North Africa, this town had a population of 507 in 1880, and in the […]
