| General note | "School Mom of Portsmouth ... tells the story of Lucy Gilgo's experience on Portsmouth teaching school in 1922-23 as well as life on the Island from 1928-1933. She tells about hunting and fishing, teaching on the island, gardening, the Coast Guard Station, and goes into great detail about the Hurricanes of 1933. There are a number of photographs she took while she was a teacher on the Island in 1922 and 1923 that have never been previously published. This is the most complete description of a school day yet to be printed."--Back cover. |
