Robert Gambee
Nantucket
The definitive book on Nantucket, now in paperback.
With over 525 color plates, this is the most comprehensive book on Nantucket ever published. All aspects of the island are included-its history, architectural treasures, beaches, sailboats, artists, open spaces, and gardens. There are over 220 photographs of private homes and secret gardens, plus over 70 photographs of antique and classic cars.
The New York Times says Gambee's photographs "speak magic," and the captions contain a rich trove of information on the history and present of this fabled island.
"Splendidly comprehensive."-Forbes

Robert Gambee has spent summers on Nantucket for five decades and done freelance photography for twenty-five years. His photographs are in the permanent collections of museums throughout the country.
