Synopsis
Excerpt from Cape Cod Pilot: Federal Writers' Project, Works Progress Administration for the State of Massachusetts
Invariably, the attendant at the museum says, the tourist looks up quickly into the glass - and is a little disappointed at seeing only himself there.
A guidebook should have better manners, I suppose, than to point back to the tourist as one Of the principal features Of interest. But manners or no manners, a Cape Cod guidebook must single him out for this distinction; for within the past two decades, the tourist has stepped into the lead ing role; summer business has overshadowed all others; for most of the towns, it is now the main stay.
