Wow.

That’s an awesome family Tree….

Mine goes back to the Voyaguers in Montreal and Mackinac Island and Chief Tecumseh … doing research for a book and movie.

We never made it to Concord or Walden Pond when we travelled down to Boston every summer.

We did make it out to South Yarmouth on Cape Cod and Nantucket though.

There is another book about another Cabin on the beach and I decided I’d rather live on the beach than in the woods with all the mosquitos….

The air is fresh and clean with all this wind off the Big Lake. (Gitche Gumee)

Long hailed as a classic of American nature writing, Henry Beston's eloquent chronicle of a solitary year spent on a Cape Cod beach was written in longhand at the kitchen table, in a little room overlooking the North Atlantic and the dunes. In 1926 Beston retreated to the outer beach at Eastham in search of peace and solitude. What began as a two-week stay lengthened into a year spent keenly observing the rhythm of the seasons and life on the Great Beach. The Outermost House played a part in establishing the Cape Code National Seashore and has profoundly influenced subsequent nature writers, including Rachel Carson, Joseph Wood Krutch, Annie Dillard, and Barry Lopez. This Warbler Classics edition includes an essay by Allan Burns on the art and legacy of The Outermost House as well as a detailed biographical timeline.
