We belong to an even smaller sub-group, for most of our men are fishermen and we have a very small number of “summer people from away.” Seventy five year round residents, 22 children under twelve (for the moment!), 14 in the one room school; 3 miles of roads; the car ferry travels here 3 times a week; a sight-seeing/passenger ferry in the summer; a great harbor, a quintessential picturesque New England fishing village, a bed and breakfast, a summer-time restaurant on the lobster wharf, incredible hikes and vistas, and 20,000 books in an adaptation of a 1755 house.We specialize in helping select academic libraries deaccession stock and gift collections. |
