5426e. Beston, Henry. THE OUTERMOST HOUSE – A Year of Life on the Great Beach of Cape Cod . New York . 1929 [1st U.S. ed.] Even though not marked, believe this is the second printing( First being 1928). 222p. 31 photographs, many by Bradford . A classic of American nature writing, The Outermost House is the journal of a year spent in a small cottage, “The Fo’Castle”, on Coast Guard Beach in Eastham. Through these wonderful writings we can sense the true feeling of life on the solitary beach as we watch the seasons unfold. As we watch the Coast Guardsmen patrol the beach for wrecks and invite a few in to warm themselves, we see too the numerous shore birds and other creatures of the dune world. Cited in 1960 by federal officials as one of the motivating forces in the creation of the Cape Cod National Seashore, this is a true classic and a wonderful vehicle by which to experience the outer beaches. Spine sunned, light wear, frontis page removed, contents clean and tight, otherwise VG+. Scarce early edition. $78.
