By the 1920s, people could bypass the operator and dial directly.

But on Martha’s Vineyard, Thankful Downs (left) still ruled the switchboard.

“The Washashore” just got the bee’s knees of reviews—and from a reader we don’t even know!

Louise Brooks may have said, “Adventure is not outside man; it is within.” We’d add: it’s also between the pages.
