Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Taming of Zenas Henry: A Cape Cod Romance
N a narrow bar of sand, surrounded by a moody ocean, lies Wilton. Sometimes the sand is golden, the ocean blue; then Wilton is in springtime humor - every wave dances, every dune Sparkles with mica, every stretch of marsh grass is emerald-hued. But under a summer sun the sea scarcely breathes; white dunes give out shimmers of heat; the marsh grass sways lazily. Fall sees Wilton often veiled in ragged mists, with muttering surf, cheerless dunes, dripping marsh grass; or, tempest-swept, its waves foam upon the shore, the dunes rise like spectres, the bronzed grass is beaten down. Winter brings leaden seas, snow-buried dunes, lifeless grasses. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
