Cape Cod
Unquestionably the best book that has ever been written about Cape Cod, and it is the model to which all new books about the Cape are still compared. These trips to the Cape, Thoreau wrote, were intended to afford a better view than I had yet had of the ocean. -- Walter Harding, The Days of Henry ThoreauThe man whose name is synonymous with contemplative rural life took a series of beach-combing walking trips around Cape Code in the early 1850s.
Along the way, Thoreau recounts the experiences of fishermen and oystermen, farmers and salvagers, lighthouse-keepers, and ship captains. The success of the great naturalist's expeditions lies in this compelling account of the region's plants, animals, topography, weather, and people.Encounters with the ocean dominate Cape Cod, from the opening episode's dramatic shipwreck to later reflections on the Pilgrims' historic arrival.
