BEWARE THE SALTY SEA DOGS AND WRETCHED WRECKSALONG THE SPIRIT-FILLED COAST OF CAPE CODClipper ships, packet ships, whale boats, and steamers left home ports on Cape Cod to navigate the icy seas. Death demanded a toll from those aboard who dared to risk the waves--and those they left behind forever awaiting their return. Extracted from The Haunting of Cape Cod and the Islands, published by Pelican Publishing, plus four new chapters, each tale brims with a froth of fascinating facts related to the ghostly mariners and their exploits . . . or their watery graves. Addresses for these fraught sites can be found at the end of the book; contacting the ghosts is up to you.
The lively ghosts found on this magical, mysterious Massachusetts island include a pirate, a preacher, a witch, a whaling captain, and a sea captain's wife. The area's history stretches back to the Indians of thousands of years ago, to the Vikings, to the Pilgrims, until the present day. This book highlights the most interesting stories, featuring such sites as a haunted rare-books store, several inns, a guesthouse, a tavern, and a theater.
