Cape Cod on My Mind (America on My Mind Series) - Hardcover

The measured cadence of the sea against the shore, the bustle of the pier as the fishing boats unload, the serenity of sunrise as it sets a marsh aglow--you get all this and more in Cape Cod on My Mind. Through the eyes of some of the most talented photographers in the nation, see why countless visitors flee to Cape Cod to escape the burdens and routines of daily life. Visit lonely lighthouses, gingerbread cottages, and weathered beach shanties. Stroll sandy beaches, explore trails, or saunter down a boardwalk through a white cedar swamp. Watch whales blow off Barnstable and artists paint in Provincetown. Steep yourself in the peninsula's colonial and nautical heritage. Complementing the spectacular color photos are the inspired words of writers who have succumbed to the Cape's charms.
