    The Hidden History of Cape Cod with Theresa Barbo

From Provincetown to Falmouth, the Cape's fifteen towns offer a plethora of hidden and enchanting tales.

Learn why one of the most famous rescues in Coast Guard history spent nearly fifty years in the shadows without public notice. Discover which wild creature went from the nineteenth-century soup pot to enjoying conservation protection under state law.

Historian Theresa Mitchell Barbo explores these mysteries and more, from the lost diary of a nineteenth-century schoolteacher to the reason Cape Codders call their lunch the noontime dinner!
