3.5
“Drawn in by the beauty of the region, Henry Beston stayed at his Cape Cod home for a year instead of the two weeks he planned to stay there. In "The Outermost House," he carefully described natural phenomena like winter storms and bird migrations, reflecting on the repetitive nature of life and his relationships with regional authors, writers like Thoreau and Plath. Beston's observations of migratory birds capture the autumnal and winteral seaside experience while also highlighting their seasonal rhythms and challenges. He laments the loss of bird species as a result of human activity and highlights the commitment of the Coast Guard in hazardous situations as well as the community's support for local sailors in difficult circumstances.”
