When Common Ground was first published, Annie Dillard praised Robert Finch's essays for "their strength, subtlety, and above all their geniality." New readers will have a chance to discover that Finch's Cape Cod is indeed a wonderful place. The birds, fish, and animals that share the cape's fragile ecology on any given summer day with the human residents are described with the fresh eye of a first-rate nature writer.
Robert Finch was an award-winning nature writer, radio journalist, and author of several books about Newfoundland and Cape Cod, including The Outer Beach. He lived on Cape Cod for over fifty years, and spent two decades of summers in Squid Tickle. He died in 2024.
