Explorers saw an Indian woman crossing the river in a canoe with her baby. The explorers wanted to see if the child of a \"savage\" could swim like a kitten or a puppy. They threw the baby into the river. The baby drowned. In her grief, the mother cursed the river -- \"Three white men will drown every year in the Saco River, forevermore.\" The curse has held true to this day. The river of life was changed to a river of death. At her death she was punished for her crime. This book was a bestseller on Maine Writers and Publishers Alliance list.
