Book summaryIn 1925, Henry Beston had a two-room house built on the dunes of Eastham and lived there for a year. His vivid account of his solitary year on Cape Cod has become a classic of nature writing. In 1964, the house was declared a literary landmark by the U.S. government in 1964, but it disappeared into the sea during an abnormally high tide during a major blizzard in February 1978--10 years after Beston's death. |
