LOVELL, Maine — On Saturday, July 17 , at 4 p.m., the Lovell Historical Society will present a screening of their new video on the history of Lovell. Titled "Lovell, Maine: Small Town. Big History," the 47-minute video follows the development of the town from its incorporation in 1800 until the present day.

Today, Lovell appears to be a quiet enclave of 1,200 inhabitants. Look just under the surface, however, and there is a legacy of a past rich with dramatic conflict, famous people, and a community tradition of entrepreneurship, sturdy industry, and hard work.
