"Contrary to what public history and popular literature might have led us to believe, Nantucket is historically an island of rich cultural diversity. Here, author Frances Ruley Karttunen introduces us to the original Nantucketers -- the Wampanoags -- as well as to African slaves, Pacific Islanders, Irish refugees, Azoreans, and Cape Verdeans who over the years have found a home on Nantucket. Here, too, is a look at the island's connection to Jamaica, the Middle East, Europe, and Asia -- all sources of people who have contributed to the island's economy and added dimensions to Nantucket's culture" -- Back cover.

"For the first time, a panoramic survey of Maryland building from the founding of the Colony through 230-odd years, until the end of the Civil War in 1865, has been written in book form. The author has presented a concise history of the vast subject, stressing the various architectural styles, such as Early Georgian, Late Georgian, Maryland-German and Classical Revival, and also giving some account of their development and sources. Style has been termed 'the essential accomplishment of a culture, and the sum of its actuality.'" -- Book jacket.
