“What is it about the waters that captures the hearts and minds of so many?  For me, it instilled a sense of union with waters carrying us to a multitude of harbors, the bond of belonging to a crew,  being happiest outdoors, living on board a vessel for months at a time, and deriving daily substance from the waters around us.”

-Elizabeth G. Brooke, from The Lobstermen

$ 19.60 for softcover booklet, $5 for digital

Join Elizabeth G Brooke for a day in the life of two fishermen. This book documents their work from the pre-dawn departure through sunset's return to Provincetown Harbor - the dredge launching, the catch hauling, the skilled shucking at sea, and the ever-present gulls riding the wake. It's a glimpse into a working life and tradition that has sustained Cape Cod families for generations.

“With each turn of the page the calm waves of Cape Cod Bay might just start your armchair gently swaying to and fro, and the soft creak of your wooden floors might begin to mimic the groans of a weather worn boat hull.”

-Tom Dott on The Lobstermen, Edible Cape Cod
