Excerpt from They Live on a Rock in the Sea!: The Isles of Shoals in Colonial Days It would appear appropriate, likewise, that this narrative we are about to hear and the considerable research which it entailed should be undertaken by a younger member of the Society, who, although a Philadelphian, has been privileged to know coastwise New Hampshire and its adjacent Southern Maine since he was a small boy - and to become intrigued by the colorful and often romantic background of the Isles of Shoals. He comes naturally by an interest in the Sea and its lore, because his family during four generations were colonial Shipbuilders in Pennsylvania.
