Seacoast Scituate By Air by Lyle Nyberg

Seacoast Scituate By Air by Lyle Nyberg

Southeast of Boston is a most scenic coastline. With 70 splendid photos in color by local pilots/photographers, this book covers Scituate's beaches, oceansides, rivers, islands, marshes, and harbors.

This is the first scenic survey of Scituate's fascinating seacoast. The book describes the views and their centuries-long histories. The book's cover, for example, shows Scituate Harbor and its iconic Scituate Light, built in 1811. The book adds historical maps for context.
