This book of seafaring poems is by a physician from Cape Cod and is dedicated to those "Sons and Daughters" who, though scattered far and wide, continue to honor their birthplace. The poems were written during the author's brief respites from his demanding profession and speak to his deep love for Cape Cod, his reverence for the sea, and his pride in the men and women the region has produced. The author is clearly a skilled sailor and a keen observer of nature, and his poems are filled with vivid descriptions of the sea and the creatures that inhabit it. However, the book is much more than just a collection of nature poems. The author also explores themes of history, loss, and the human condition. In one poem, he imagines the thoughts of a mermaid as she watches a ship sail past, and in another, he reflects on the death of a young sailor. The book is full of insights into the human experience, and its poems will resonate with anyone who has ever felt a connection to the sea or to the land. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.

This collection gathers sea-soaked laments, hopeful odes, and quiet meditations set along Atlantic shores. Rich with maritime imagery, it invites readers to pause and listen to the whisper of waves, winds, and old stories that shape a coastal townsfolk’s life.
