“Author Dr. Michael V. Pregot has written a shipshape reference book about Cape Cod Sea Captains. He has researched and found details of these mariners that the lover of all things Cape Cod might never know about. As a writer of historical fiction, I look for these particulars hoping they might spark interesting elements for my stories.
