Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An O, The Oprah Magazine Best Summer Read Back with another "tragicomic romp" (O, the Oprah Magazine), the award-winning author of The Last Summer of the Camperdowns brings her sparkling wit and big-hearted touch to Maine's Monhegan Island. When Spark—the rakish prodigal son—returns unannounced to the dilapidated family home, his arrival launches an unforgettable summer on Monhegan Island. During his absence, his gentle brother and shrewd, fork-tongued father, Pastor Ragnar, have been caring for Spark’s son, Hally. A temperamental adolescent emboldened by tales of his father’s mischief, Hally is careening through an identity crisis when he stuns his family by claiming to have had a spiritual vision. Though Spark is permanently dubious, Pastor Ragnar pounces on the chance to revitalize his flagging church. Hally is shoved into the spotlight and, in the frenzy that follows, this fragile family is pushed to the brink. Narrated in larger-than-life, crackling prose by one charismatic shih tzu, The Miracle on Monhegan Island is another "exquisite and occasionally uproarious" (Elizabeth Egan) must-read summer blockbuster from Elizabeth Kelly.
Book Synopsis Monhegan Island by : Margot Sullivan
Download or read book Monhegan Island written by Margot Sullivan and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2009-05-11 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Monhegan Island, Maine has historically attracted a number of different visitors and workers, each with their own unique reasons for being there. The natural beauty of Monhegan Island has continuously attracted generations of artists, day-trippers, and summer sojourners. White Head, Pulpit Rock, and Cathedral Woods are names that resonate throughout New England and beyond. Long before the first ferry full of seasonal visitors arrived, the Monhegan Island fishermen had established a permanent community on the island, scratching out an existence on a remote offshore outpost. As early as 1890, prominent artists Robert Henri and George Bellows, followed by Rockwell Kent and Jamie Wyeth, captured the magnificence of Monhegan. They shared the cliffs and coves with the lighthouse keepers, carpenters, lobstermen, and the island people.

Stahl Monhegan Museum of Art & History, Monhegan Island, Maine 2018 THE MONHEGAN MUSEUM OF ART & HISTORY was founded in 1968 when automation of the Monhegan Light Station provided the opportunity to acquire the property and transform it into a venue to preserve and display the island¿s rich historical and cultural heritage. As Edward L. Deci, director of the museum for thirty-five years, writes: ¿Remarkably, on this small, isolated island the human history has been extraordinary.¿ The museum now houses a collection of more than 30,000 objects, including nearly 1,500 works of art, many created by some of the giants of American art who have been associated with the 160 year history of the Monhegan art colony.THE MONHEGAN MUSEUM: CELEBRATING FIFTY YEARS represents a special commemorative volume that brings together authors whose varied disciplines capture many different aspects of this unusual museum. Essays describe the Monhegan art colony and its artists; the visionaries of the island community who worked together to bring this museum to fruition; the historical buildings of the museum; the programs that have been initiated to ensure sustainability of the buildings and the conservation of the collection; and the history of the Kent-Fitzgerald Historic Artists¿ Home and Studio. Included are approximately ninety full-color reproductions of works from the museum¿s collections and fifty historic images from its archives.
