Great Beach

John Hay

Written by John Hay, a naturalist and co-founder of the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History, The Great Beach is an exploration into the nature and beauty of Cape Cod, Massachusetts. His passion for Cape Cod is evident as he writes of the wildlife, sea life, and vegetation of this narrow peninsula. Hay includes much of the history of this area as a backdrop, along with his concerns for the future of this land due to the uptick of tourism. - Summary by Phyllis Vincelli
