  1. Simons, Ben (Ed) et al. Sconset: A History. Nantucket Historical Association. 2008. 96p. Soft wraps. Published as a companion piece to the Nantucket Historical Association exhibition “Sconset 02564: A Celebration of the Patchwork Village. May-November 2008. This history of Siasconset recounts the development of the village on the easternmost shore of Nantucket Island—from its beginnings as a seasonal fishing station to its incarnation as a summer retreat, and, demographically, as the smaller of Nantucket’s two towns, the only other settlement with its own zip code: 02564. Through numerous wonderful vintage photographs, maps, paintings, documents and more, a chronology of the village emerges from a this variety of voices and sources. Superb reading and viewing. (M). $34.
