Joseph Crosby Lincoln (1870-1944) was an American author of novels,
poems, and short stories, many set in a fictionalized Cape Cod.
Lincoln's work frequently appeared in popular magazines such as the
Saturday Evening Post. The 1922 film No Trespassing was based on
his love story, The Rise of Roscoe Paine.
"The dear old Cape! I love it! I love its hills of sand," From "The
Surf Along the Shore", Cape Cod Ballads (1902). From 1902 to a year
before his death in 1943, Joseph Crosby Lincoln wrote over forty
novels, and many more poems and short stories. Every novel he wrote
was a success and many were translated into other languages and
adapted for screenplays or stage productions. These twenty-two
poems, eight short stories, and a novel touch the heart of
Lincoln's works and show "essentials" of his writing. Even though
celebrated author Joseph C. Lincoln traveled far from his native
Cape Cod, Massachusetts, it remained close to his heart and
foremost in his novels, short stories, and poems. Though many
authors wrote works of literature about Cape Cod, none were more
successful or better known than his. His writing was so popular, so
vivid, and so accurate in capturing the imagery and spirit of the
cape, that he is often described more as a historian than a writer
of fiction. In Lincoln's works, the Cape Cod of the past, with
picturesque villages and rugged residents, comes vividly alive.
Travel to a time when life was simpler, the people were down to
earth, and the comforts of "The Old Home House" were just around
the corner.
