Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea-Girt Nantucket: A Hand-Book of Historical and Contemporaneous Information for Visitors In compiling this volume I have carefully examined many books and pamphlets bearing on the subject, and have obtained much valuable information therefrom. At the same time my conviction has been strengthened that the history of Nantucket has yet to be written. It is to be earnestly hoped that the writer who undertakes this important work will bring to his task both courage and sympathy: courage to face unpleasant facts and state them in good plain English; sympathy to see and describe the brighter side. Without such equipment no true or adequate history of a people can be written. To do full justice to the many varying phases of the subject must be the work of numerous writers, each seeing from his own standpoint. My purpose in this little book has been simply to provide, for the use of visitors especially, a condensed account of the island's history from its discovery to the present time. All that is claimed for it is that the facts have been gathered from the most reliable sources. I have been favored in my work with the valuable assistance of several of my friends who have written on special subjects, and others who have aided me in various ways. I also acknowledge my indebtedness to the authors from whose works quotations have been made. To meet the requirements of advertisers a Business Directory has been appended at the back of the book.

Book excerpt: "A stunning atlas of the present and future."—Rebecca Solnit, author of several books including Infinite Cities: A Trilogy of Atlases—San Francisco, New Orleans, New York "An impassioned plea to save what remains of these remarkable island communities."—Booklist, starred review One of the Best Science Books of 2023, New Scientist This immersive portal to islands around the world highlights the impacts of sea level rise and shimmers with hopeful solutions to combat it. Atlases are being redrawn as islands are disappearing. What does an island see when the sea rises? Sea Change: An Atlas of Islands in a Rising Ocean weaves together essays, maps, art, and poetry to show us—and make us see—island nations in a warming world. Low-lying islands are least responsible for global warming, but they are suffering the brunt of it. This transportive atlas reorients our vantage point to place islands at the center of the story, highlighting Indigenous and Black voices and the work of communities taking action for local and global climate justice. At once serious and playful, well-researched and lavishly designed, Sea Change is a stunning exploration of the climate and our world's coastlines. Full of immersive storytelling, scientific expertise, and rallying cries from island populations that shout with hope—"We are not drowning! We are fighting!"—this atlas will galvanize readers in the fight against climate change and the choices we all face.
