Imagine a place of unspoiled beaches, windswept dunes, and dramatic
natural beauty. A place free of traffic lights and blaring
commercial come-ons. A place whose rich historical heritage is
visible everywhere--from the antiques-shop windows filled with
handmade baskets and scrimshawed ivories to the spare, shingle-clad
houses that coexist harmoniously with the surrounding land- and
seascapes. Imagine a place designed, by man and nature, to relax
and restore you. Nantucket Island is that place. Thirty miles off
Cape Cod, Nantucket is both geographically isolated and--as an
internationally regarded vacation resort--culturally sophisticated.
Nantucketers are rightly proud of a manner of living that couples
the casual comforts of small-town life with an urbane sense of
glamour, taste, and style. In this handsomely illustrated book,
longtime Nantucket residents Leslie Linsley and Terry Pommett give
you an insider's look at the on-island lifestyle: the restored
historic homes of Nantucket town and 'Sconset village, the
appealingly humble beachfront cottages that dot the island's
shoreline, and the beautifully tended gardens--formal and
informal--that grace Nantucket's private houses and public
buildings. More than 200 color photos document the other
attractions--panoramic views, home-grown handicrafts, seasonal
celebrations --that make Nantucket such a rewarding place to spend
a day, a summer, or a lifetim
