From the dust jacket: "From the trials and tribulations of Grandfather T. H. Shepard and his clan who spent summers at their Salem Bay estate of Peaches Point, emerges a sometimes humorous, sometimes poignant, and always engaging picture of a bygone way of life which existed during the first half of this century. Vacations at the grand old family home on Boston's North Shore were unforgettable experiences -- Grandfather saw to that -- and not altogether relaxing ones for the hordes of friends and relations who returned each year for another season of tennis, sailing, and just plain surviving under the roof of the cantankerous T. H. Shepard."
