Download or read book The Insider s Guide to Martha s Vineyard written by P. D. Murray and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-06-17 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Insider's Guide to Martha's Vineyard is an admittedly spotty, clearly biased, erratically researched and often ill-conceived manual on how to be a true Islander from the wry pen of P. D. Murray. With such important advice as how to avoid the perils of deer ticks and poets, why bumper stickers are so critical to Island life, and where to find opalescent shad lures or a pirate eye patch, this guide is bound to pay for itself in seconds flat. Barring that, it may turn out to be mildy entertaining.

Download or read book A Meeting of Land and Sea written by David R. Foster and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2017-01-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An eminent ecologist shows how an iconic New England island has been shaped by nature and human history, and how its beloved landscape can be protected Full of surprises, bedecked with gorgeous photographs and maps, and supported by unprecedented historical and ecological research, this book awakens a new perspective on the renowned New England island Martha's Vineyard. David Foster explores the powerful natural and cultural forces that have shaped the storied island to arrive at a new interpretation of the land today and a well-informed guide to its conservation in the future. Two decades of research by Foster and his colleagues at the Harvard Forest encompass the native people and prehistory of the Vineyard, climate change and coastal dynamics, colonial farming and modern tourism, as well as land planning and conservation efforts. Each of these has helped shape the island of today, and each also illuminates possibilities for future caretakers of the island's ecology. Foster affirms that Martha's Vineyard is far more than just a haven for celebrities, presidents, and moguls; it is a special place with a remarkable history and a population with a proud legacy of caring for the land and its future.

Download or read book The Rise of Tourism on Martha s Vineyard written by Thomas Dresser and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-04-09 with total page 156 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now known as a resort community and vacation destination, Martha's Vineyard was once a simple fishing and whaling community. From the popularity of the Methodist Campground, founded in 1835, the Vineyard soon blossomed into a summer vacation mecca, welcoming visitors to its quaint villages and scenic seashores. As whaling lost its economic dominance, tourism became the catalyst for a revived prosperity on the Vineyard. President Grant's visit to the Vineyard in 1874 drew national attention and marked the beginning of several presidential visits to the island. By 1900, Oak Bluffs had developed an amusement park atmosphere with the iconic Flying Horses, toboggan slide and grand seaside hotels. Join local historian Tom Dresser as he reveals the island's transformation into a premier tourist destination.
