Product Description

Product Description

With more than a million visitors a year, Nantucket is a famed getaway, but only a few natives can attest to its mystic beauty in the fall and winter months. Among them is Cary Hazlegrove, whose "Nantucket: The Quiet Season" is the stunning follow-up to her celebrated "Nantucket: Seasons on the Island." With Hazlegrove's signature photographs and evocative quotes from residents, this book captures what tourists rarely see: the island's hushed off-season life. Holiday hearths and cheery shopfronts provide warm refuge from chilly bogs and snow-blanketed dunes, revealing an island winter wonderland. With over one hundred images and a foreword by best-selling author Nathaniel Philbrick, "Nantucket: The Quiet Season" offers a unique view of the island, allowing all to enjoy its multifaceted charm year-round.

As a professional photographer and writer, there are a select few who fit the bill of "really great" for me. In this case, there are three photos in this book that make the whole book more than worth while having. Maybe a little heavy on the Christmas photos, but in all a very sensitive and introspective look at one of my favorite islands.

Cary's pictures are always great, I have several of her books. I generally ignore the text as it can detract from the pictures at times. Cary - don't feel like you need someone's quotes....your pictures stand alone!!

The book itself was in great condition. The jacket had a small tear on it..not a big deal if I purchased for myself-but unfortunately-it was a gift for my daughter.Shipping time was a little slow; but the price could NOT be beat and my daughter LOVED this book!!
