"Three generations of Big Tancook islanders reveal the unique economic and social conditions that have shaped their lives and the ties that hold families and a community together.

This oral history examines how Tancookers are meeting the challenge of keeping some distance from the faster pace of life that has altered the fabric of small communities everywhere. The accompanying photographs document the life of a community that has been shaped by the sea for nearly 200 years." - back cover. x,173 pages. Wonderful black and white photography throughout. Printed upon glossy stock. Oblong 8"x10". Gift greetings inside front cover, otherwise unmarked with average wear. A sound copy of this informative and very attractively presented work.; 8vo .
