Photographs by PETER H. DREYER

While its scenery and recreational opportunities, its invigorating climate, open heathland and sandy beaches are great attractions, the historic background of the old town brings the visitor in touch with a vital history of a great whaling empire that ruled the oceans from this small island out in the Atlantic, and the generations of whalemen and the craftsmen and artisans who aided them.
Described by Daniel Webster as "the unknown city in the ocean," Nantucket's old houses, streets and lanes are so well preserved that one can imagine the daily life of a seafaring people of the i8th century. After the last whaleship left, never to return, the town fell asleep for almost a hundred years, and its charm has been preserved with the old houses and the leisurely way of life. Nantucket was discovered again, by tourists looking for an unspoiled haven, and the islanders have striven to preserve it thus.
Nantucket's exciting history is told by Edouard A. Stackpole, and the architecture, landmarks, natural beauties, and daily life of the island are captured by Peter H. Dreyer's photography. Vissza
