Stories of Cape Cod is a rich and engaging journey through one of America’s most storied regions, told town by town and voice by voice.

Written in an inviting, conversational style, Jack Johnson brings Cape Cod’s past to life through a series of short historical narratives and local anecdotes that span centuries of New England life. From the early settlements of Bourne and Sandwich to the windswept shores of Chatham and Wellfleet, each chapter explores the unique character of a Cape town—its people, its industries, its legends, and the events that shaped it.

Listeners will encounter tales of maritime adventure, wartime service, invention, and everyday resilience, alongside memorable figures such as Myles Standish, Daniel Webster, Admiral Nimitz, and the lesser-known but equally fascinating locals who defined their communities. Stories of glassmaking, canal construction, fishing, shipbuilding, and small-town enterprise paint a vivid portrait of Cape Cod as both a working landscape and a cultural crossroads.

Narrated with warmth and clarity by Tony J. Martin, this audiobook feels less like a formal history and more like a guided walk through time—full of human detail, quiet drama, and regional charm.

Perfect for listeners interested in New England history, American local color writing, or the enduring spirit of coastal communities, Stories of Cape Cod preserves the voices, memories, and traditions that continue to shape the Cape.
