Synopsis

From its 300 miles of majestic beaches to its lush woodlands and crimson cranberry bogs, Cape Cod is a favorite destination for vacationers throughout the year. Autumn to summer, the Cape has it all, if you know where to look; and you needn't look any further than the pages of this detailed guide. It offers incisive information on the resorts, B&Bs, beaches, restaurants, and centuries-old buildings that make this fishhook-shaped peninsula unique. Frederick Pratson (1935-1989) was also the author of Globe Pequot's Guide to Eastern Canada and Guide to Western Canada. A member of the Society of American Travel Writers, Pratson has written in newspapers and magazines including the Christian Science Monitor, and The Boston Globe.
