If you've seen a grand old shore house and wondered about the people who own it, here's your chance to peek inside. This books offers a beautifully written journey through a writer's lifetime spent summering in a grand old, fading shore house in Cape Cod. George Howe Colt masterfully weaves together his own childhood memories, family history and legends with tender moments observing and enjoying his own children at their seaside birthright.
Without even trying, this books quietly explores social differences and likenesses between generations and time. If you'd like to take a trip to Coastal New England, with an eloquent friend as a guide, the Big House is for you.
