A Nantucket Enclave: Monomoy Heights, 1852-2005

For more than a century the forces that shaped Nantucket Island have played themselves out in the beautiful neighborhood of Monomoy Heights. As the island has evolved from a sleepy seaside community to a bustling summer resort to a coveted vacation destination, Monomoy Heights remains one of Nantucket's most cherished and representative communities. In A Nantucket Enclave, C. S. Lovelace tells a tale that only one who cares deeply for its subject can tell: the stories of the men and women who have built and loved Monomoy Heights, from sheep commons, to cottage colony, to Gold Coast.
