from Pocket Island · host Various

Nestled along the picturesque coast of Maine, the small island known as Pocket Island captivates the imagination with its unique tidal pocket that emerges twice a day. Rich in history and local lore, this island is steeped in secrets and legends. Subtitled A Story of Country Life in New England, this tale offers a captivating glimpse into the lives of its inhabitants, weaving together stories of ghosts, war, barn dances, friendship, rum-runners, smugglers, and seafarers‚all intertwined with a heartfelt narrative of love. Journey back to around 1824 and explore the mysteries that linger on Pocket Island, where the echoes of the past may still haunt the present. (Introduction by Roger Melin)
