by Frances Ruley Karttunen (Author)
The history of Nantucket is not just about whaling, but it includes bawdy houses, knife fights, marauding gangs of miscreants, and buckets and buckets of rum-all cheek by jowl with plain and sober Quakers. In a series of stories about real people, Frances Ruley Karttunen's new book brings to life events and colorful characters from Nantucket's past.
