Hidden history implies a bit of mystery, digging into the unknown. That's what's fun about A Hidden History of Martha's Vineyard.  We look into Island topics not usually discussed: Graveyards.  Underground Railroad.  Island names.  Unusual buildings.  Shipwrecks.

Sure, we know a little about these topics, but this book uncovers the mystery and lesser known events and experiences associated with the topics listed.  

The attached photos offer another view of A Hidden History of Martha's Vineyard.

Enjoy!


HIDDEN HISTORY OF MARTHA'S VINEYARD

Hidden History of Martha's Vineyard was published by the History Press on April 17, 2017.  It is brimming with little-known intriguing details.  A fun read, if I say so myself.
