Download Nantucket Sound (MA): A Maritime History AudioBook Free
An ancient angling ground, vital shipment passage and last resting place for those unable to get around its rocky shoals, Nantucket Audio - bordered by Martha's Vineyard, Cape Cod and, of course, Nantucket - remains one of New England's most historic waterways. Here, the first rays of day sunlight touch the United States before sweeping westward. In fact, the area's early inhabitants were called Wampanoag: 'People of the Dawn.' From whaling culture and infamous shipwrecks to legends of Vikings, sea gods, and John Smith, local publisher Theresa Mitchell Barbo unearths the tales hidden beneath these abrasive waves. At once unforgiving and ample, Nantucket Audio has seduced many seafarers using its siren song but nonetheless overflows with diverse marine life.
