Download or read book Cape Cod Classic Reprint written by Henry David Thoreau and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-07-16 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Cape Cod During the last thirty years, many of the more remote and isolated sections of New England have become popular with summer tourists and cottagers. Cape Cod has shared in this invasion from visitors and yet has maintained, to a large extent, its natural out lines of landscape and many of its primitive customs. Groups of cottages have been built along the coast where formerly was only a sandy beach without any Sign of human life. The hamlets and villages of fifty years ago Truro, Chatham, Provincetown, Yar mouth - are now active towns, reaping commercial benefits from tourists. In spite of such changes, the aspects of nature and the traits of the native inhabit ants are still akin to those described by Thoreau, half a century ago, in his graphic narrative, Cape Cod. In a characteristic style, direct and vivid, he stated at the beginning the purpose of his excursions and the routes that were followed: Wishing to get a better view than I had yet had of the ocean, which, we are told, covers more than two - thirds of the globe, but of which a man who lives a few miles inland may never see any trace, more than of another world, I made a visit to Cape Cod in October, 1849, another the succeeding June, and another to Truro in July, 18 5 5; the first and last time with a single companion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pageant of Cape Cod The chief musical motif of the Pageant, the motif of the Life Saver, sounds clear and strong from the full orchestra, -proclaiming the power that conserves all life. As this is still ringing over the waters, there follows in the orchestra the sound of the open sea surging over the world. From one side sweep forward a mass of Ocean Waves, young men and women clad in the colors Of the deep sea water, surging across the Open in successive tidal movements. Then there comes to meet them another mass of waves, the Waters Of the Bay, clad in the lighter colors of the more Shallow coastal waters. The two groups in tidal motion surge up toward each other. As they meet they toss their white scarves into the air like the Spray and the foam of Splashing waves. The tides recede and come together again and again with the surf Splash and the clash of the meeting waves in the dances and in the music.
