{"product_id":"cape-cod-bay-theresa-mitchell-barbo-9781596295025","title":"Cape Cod Bay:: A History of Salt and Sea","description":"European explorers were captivated by the seemingly endless bounty of natural resources on Cape Cod Bay. One Englishman declared that the codfish were so thick one could walk on their backs. Early settlers quickly learned how to harness the bay's resources and excelled at shore whaling, shipping and salt making. But as these new industries flourished, the native Wampanoag, who helped the fledgling colony to take root, nearly vanished. Author Theresa Mitchell Barbo's skillful narrative weaves together the natural and cultural histories of the bay, highlighting some of the region's diverse milestones- from the drafting of the Mayflower Compact in 1620 to the establishment of the Pilgrim Nuclear Power Plant 350 years later. Cape Cod Bay: A History of Salt \u0026amp; Sea inspires new appreciation for this storied and stunning seascape, and underscores the importance of new efforts to preserve the bay's unique ecosystem.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Theresa Mitchell Barbo\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1596295023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781596295025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/01\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 128\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 6.90w x 0.40d","brand":"Theresa Mitchell Barbo","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43979301191935,"sku":"9781596295025","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_323dc06c-9e86-425f-a62e-7bf46a228a12.jpg?v=1683244825","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cape-cod-bay-theresa-mitchell-barbo-9781596295025","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
