Marblehead encompasses all of 1927, a year in which H.P. Lovecraft, researching a book he'd been hired to write for the Nazis, travels the East Coast in the company of Charles Sylvester Viereck.
This book is a four hundred year timeline of events of Marblehead, Massachusetts. There are stories based on the experiences and observations of one family continuously living in Town. William Dixey was a servant of Isaac Johnson and arrived in Naumkeag in 1629. The Dixey family settled in Marblehead and has lived in this coastal town for almost four hundred years. The author is also a descendant of Isaac Allerton, a Mayflower passenger that used Marblehead as a base for his fishing fleet. Along with the timeline and stories, are four hundred and twenty photographs and maps from the author's private collection. Thirty pages of genealogy in the back of the book show connections to most of Marblehead's old families. Hundreds of names are listed, with some families going back to the late 1500s. Old books, documents, town records, probate records, wills, old newspapers, interviews with Marbleheaders, family letters and other family documents were used in writing the book.
A loving photographic portrait of Marblehead, Massachusetts, by renowned photographer Ulrike Welsch, a longtime resident of the town.
The true beauty and fury of the Atlantic Ocean are known only by the rugged individuals who have made their living from the sea. In the seventy-five years from the American Revolution to the middle of the nineteenth century, Marblehead, Massachusetts, experienced a golden age of fishing. For the next fifty years, the industry struggled, but from 1900 until the end of the twentieth century, one small anchorage made itself proud. From boat building to sail design, First Harbor produced creative men whose innovations helped shape marine history. Join Hugh Peabody Bishop and Brenda Bishop Booma as they reveal this story through the eyes of a Marblehead fisherman, drawn uncontrollably by his love for the sea.
The enthralling 200 year history of Marblehead Massachusetts' two lights - the original lighthouse and the present light tower - as well as its Lighthouse Keepers, the Wickies.
Agnes Surriage, it turns out, was more Pygmalion than Cinderella. Her role models were the fiercely independent "codfish widows, "? wives of the early Marblehead fishermen who managed home and family seven months a year without their husbands. In Agnes's version of My Fair Lady, she had to act as her own Henry Higgins while making the often painful transformation from "girl of all works"? at the Fountain Inn to the charming and dignified Lady Agnes, wife of Sir Charles Henry Frankland. After deconstructing the legend for twenty-five years, author F. Marshall Bauer has unearthed a story of money, lust and vindication.
