The great beach
John Hay and David Grose
155 pages~3 hr 5 min read18 chapters$1.99
A single Cape Cod beach becomes a whole world when you slow down enough. John Hay walks the great outer shore through its seasons, reading tide, sand, and bird with a poet's patience. Nothing dramatic happens, and everything does. A quiet classic of American nature writing that teaches you to look longer. Bring it to the water and let the beach speak.
