Description and Table of Contents
Description
One of the great classics of Cape Cod literature and a fine piece of nature writing--a lyrical, keenly observed portrait of a much loved land and its inhabitants. Dr. Wyman Richardson lived the busy life of a distinguished physician, practicing in Boston and teaching at the Harvard Medical School, but here is recorded his other life--the life closest to his heart. Cape Cod, and more specifically, his humble farmhouse on Nauset Marsh, was his "earthly paradise" and the site of many keen observations and reflections on the natural world. Nothing escaped Wyman Richardson's eyes--the changing moods of the land and sea, the dozens of species of birds in the salt marshes and woods, and the personalties and stories of the Cape Codders he knew are all recorded here.
