Tall Tales Of Cape Cod by Marillis Bittinger ~ Full Audiobook [folklore]

Tall Tales Of Cape Cod by Marillis Bittinger audiobook.

Genre: folklore

Tall Tales Of Cape Cod gathers a spirited handful of legends, yarns, and half-remembered histories that Cape Codders might tell when the wind is up and the tide is turning. Marillis Bittinger blends local color with playful exaggeration, introducing a shoreline where strict Sabbath manners collide with human stubbornness, where buried loot and sudden gold fever tempt the hopeful, and where old superstitions still cling to the dunes. Across these episodes, you will meet sailors and sweethearts, practical townsfolk and notorious eccentrics, plus more than a few uncanny presences: a feared woman rumored to be a witch, salvagers turned mooncussers who lure ships toward disaster, and larger-than-life figures and creatures that make the Cape feel both familiar and mythic. Some tales lean into romance, others into humor, and others into eerie wonder, but all of them circle the same core question: what makes a place feel like home, and what do its stories reveal about the people who live there? With its quick pacing and strong storytelling voice, this collection invites you to listen in like a guest by the harbor fire.
