Inhaltsangabe:

In Cape Odd, historians Jim Coogan and Jack Sheedy bring to light some of the more unusual and overlooked stories about Cape Cod. This is the fourth collaboration between the popular award winning authors and from dusty archives, old newspapers, and personal interviews, the two have complied a record of curious events, happenings, and people, that if they were not odd in the very narrow sense of the word, were certainly out of the ordinary. From the Barnstable sea captain who kept Siamese twins in his woodshed and the Sandwich man who taught dancing to King George V and Queen Mary of England, to the well-heeled and eccentric Falmouth family that made a practice of weighing their guests before feeding them, Cape Cod, as you will find, is a never ending source of strange and unusual tales.
