Nantucket Island, off coastal New England, has always been a
cherished vacation destination. On a given summer day the
population swells to more than forty thousand people. The summer
months bring a steady stream of visitors who flock to the
extraordinary beauty and history of Nantucket’s shores, its clear
skies, and its southwest breezes. Just as important is the
year-round community of people who choose to stay through the
winter months. The off-season brings Nantucket to its essence—the
peaceful and vibrant autumn, windy winters long and gray, followed
by the short season of spring. Nantucket residents learn to love
its quirky seasons, filled as they are with frustrating travel
experiences, weather stories, and isolation. Filled with over 130
poignant color photographs illuminating the island’s distinct
seasons, Nantucket displays the best from a body of work covering
the past decade. Images paired with thoughtful words by island
residents and a foreword by best-selling author and summer resident
David Michaelis make this book an enduring portrayal of Nantucket.
