A battle for control of a spectacular Maine island pits the Family Beal against itself, rich summer homeowners, and the national park service. This historical coming-of-age novel follows generations of the lobstering Beals of Aguahega Island-from the "landing place" of seagoing Native Americans to today's Acadia National Park (in the book called Norumbega National Park). Triumph and loss, dreams and exploitation pursue the Beals as a hidden way of life is exiled to the 21st Century.
