Description
|
|
|
|
What better way to present Henry David Thoreau's classic treatise on Cape Cod than with beautiful color photographs of the places in question—many of them seen in ways Thoreau himself might have seen them. Here are gorgeous images, up to 18 x 10 inches, of sea and sky, seabirds and church steeples, ancient door knockers and dunes swept with beach grass, a mist-enshrouded lighthouse and a Monet-like composition of lily pads on an autumn lake. Thoreau's Cape Cod is a wonderfully written and surprisingly funny account of 19th-century life on the cape before it became a tourist attraction.
