A slow and relaxing read that transports you to both 1913 and your own childhood. It shows that some things never change, and still so much is lost to the past. This book has an overly calming atmosphere that can send your mind to a place of peace and simplicity. That is a little bit rare don't you think? I never thought I would want to go to Cape Cod... Though the times and the place itself have changed since these recollections, I can't help but hope to witness what I can of it's apparent splendour before any more time passes. What a precious book.

A fun read and a glimpse at life back when things were a lot less complicated (and less expensive). I enjoyed all of the colorful descriptions of everyday life and people who lived on or visited Cape Cod.
Side note: This book has been passed around my family to read as we are all related to "Cousin Alfred". As an adult Alfred continued to spend summer vacations on the Cape with his own family.

Delightful true story of life on Cape Cod in the 1913-1918 time frame as told from a young boys eyes.
