In the heart of Cape Ann - The story of Dogtown Charles E. Mann

This book explores the forgotten history of Dogtown, a long-abandoned settlement in the heart of Cape Ann, Massachusetts. Once home to over a hundred families, by the mid-19th century, Dogtown was a ghost town, its former inhabitants having moved away to escape the area's poverty and isolation. The author delves into the lives of the Dogtown residents, uncovering their struggles, their relationships, and the reasons behind the town's decline. Drawing on extensive research, including interviews with descendants of the original settlers, the author paints a vivid picture of a forgotten chapter in American history, illuminating the hardships and resilience of those who once called Dogtown home. The book also considers the broader historical context of Dogtown's rise and fall, examining the economic and social forces that shaped the lives of its inhabitants and ultimately led to the town's abandonment. Through its detailed account of Dogtown's history, the author provides valuable insights into the human condition and the enduring legacy of the past. From Amazon
