商品簡介
Almost everyone who has visited this legendary island can recite Nantucket’s “official history” as a whaling empire and premier resort destination. But very few know the true reasons why things turned out as they did…and how they really came to pass.In Tom Never’s Ghost, you’ll gain a fresh new understanding of the Island’s history, both past and present, in a lively historical narrative that goes well beyond a straight history to “connect all the dots.” Based on nearly five years of research, it details much that has never been reported before, and much that surprises, including…the real reasons why Nantucket eclipsed all other ports in whaling wealth and why its fortunes ultimately fell…the true mission of the Top Secret Navy Base at Tom Nevers…the attempted Federal takeover of the whole Island in 1972…and the three unrelated events that triggered Nantucket’s current real estate feeding frenzy. In Tom Never’s Ghost you’ll learn all this plus much more.
