7371. Chamberlain, Samuel. Cape Cod in the Sun. Hastings House. 1937
- Chamberlain, Samuel. Cape Cod in the Sun. Hastings House. 1937. 96p. Stiff wraps. 1st Edition. Orange cloth with gilt cover lettering. B&W photo essay – photographs and comments by noted New England photographer Samuel Chamberlain. Cape Cod has always been a picturesque, unspoiled area rich in rural charm. This collection of 1930’s b/w photographs capture this romance and charm, and provide a glimpse of the adventurous days when the Cape was the one of the world’s greatest seafaring area. In the early 1930s he invested in a Zeiss Orix. Sam’s camera would be brought on solo and family car trips throughout New England. Architecture, picturesque sea and landscapes, and other “American Scenes” were the focuses of his lens. These images were shared with the world via Sam’s illustrated books such as Cape Cod in the Sun and Historic Boston in Four Seasons. He published approximately 50 photo-essay books on American and European subjects, as well as combining forces with his wife, Narcissa, to produce several books on “the pleasures of the table” including Bouquet de France: an Epicurean tour of the French Provinces and Flavor of Italy, in Recipes and Pictures. Cover with some areas of damp stain and soiling, corners worn. Contents clean and tight. Superb images. (VG-). $14.
