Description
Woods Hole is known for its charming waterfront and the internationally famous Oceanographic Institution. However, the rich history of this seaside village goes back much further. Author Elizabeth Sheehychronicles the history of the townthrough the lives of Walter Nickerson and Helena Nugent, an unlikely pair from different worlds, who built a house in this unique community more than a hundred years ago.
At a transformative time in our nations history, family members spread out across New England, looking for opportunity, but Woods Hole always drew them back. The house on Eel Pond survived the 1938 New England Hurricane, and served as a boarding house for many years. Its history is tied to the Nobska Lighthouse, the Falmouth Road Race, and the economic resilience that exemplifies Woods Hole, past, present and future.
