Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a remarkable compendium of poems, drawing on the distinctive New England coastal landscape and the author's own experiences growing up in a seaside village at the end of the 19th century. At once deeply nostalgic and richly evocative, these verses describe the trials and joys of a bygone era, breathing new life into the people, places, and traditions of a unique time and place. While the author's affectionate and humorous style lends an inviting warmth to the collection, these poems are more than mere remembrances of days past. They delve into the resilience of the human spirit in the face of hardship, the simple pleasures of daily life, and the enduring bonds of family and community. The result is a singularly charming and thought-provoking work that captures the triumphs and travails of a world both lost and lovingly preserved.
