This mesmerizing photographic and literary log book unravels the
mysteries of more than seventy islands dotting the sea from New
York Harbor at the mouth of the Hudson to Fishers Island Sound.
This magical island world, hiding in plain sight, is revealed
aboard documentary filmmaker and writer Thomas Halaczinsky's
thirty-foot sailboat. His course follows the route of Adriaen
Block, the first European who in 1614 sailed and mapped this area.
On old marine charts, these islands have curious-sounding names
such as Money Island, Pot Island, and Rats Island, while names such
as Rockaway, Jamaica Bay, and Montauk speak of the indigenous
people who once inhabited the land. Rooted in history, local tales
are interwoven with current themes such as climate change and
wrapped in the narrative of sailing in quest of a sense of place.
