Mysteries And Adventures Along the Atlantic Coast

Edward Rowe Snow (1902-1982) was the dean of New England maritime historians and the author of over one hundred books and monographs. In 2002, on the hundredth anniversary of his birth, Commonwealth Editions began reissuing some of his finest works in new hardcover editions, updated by contemporary maritime historian Jeremy D'Entremont. Seventh in the series of Snow Centennial Editions, this is the maritime author's first book-length collection of stories, originally published in 1948. There's everything here, from buried treasure off Nova Scotia to a phantom woman who haunted St. Isaac Cay in the Bahamas. Other favorites are the octopus that attacked a ship, the sea serpents that stalked Nova Scotia and Nahant, and the first "bullfight" in America (in Dogtown on Cape Ann).Snow, Edward Rowe is the author of 'Mysteries And Adventures Along the Atlantic Coast ', published 2006 under ISBN 9781933212098 and ISBN 1933212098.
