Book Description


A History of Nantucket A History of Nantucket by Omed Macy

"History may be properly said to contribute to the necessities of our species, inasmuch as the experience of past generations is oftentimes the only criterion by which to judge of the consequences of present acts."
- Obed Macy

It is with this guidance that Obed Macy published this history in 1835. Appreciating that much of what came before helps to determine what happens today, Macy successfully captures not only what would be considered the traditional fare of historians, but many of the overlooked things that made and make Nantucket such a special place.

From the "unique" accounts of whaling (often hard to prove), and the inclusion of many less well known personages, Macy has secured his place on the bookshelves of all who love this special place.
