What they're saying ...

 

“Whether people take the message (of severe weather warnings) seriously is up to people who do what I did, and, of course, the great books that Don has written — hopefully as many people as possible read them, and they learn a lot, and they become aware of the danger, and hopefully they’ll do the right things and the best things they can do, and it wouldn’t come as a surprise.”
— Harvey Leonard, Chief Meteorologist Emeritus, WCVB-TV, Boston,  on “The Point,” WCAI-FM (NPR), Woods Hole, Mass., May 23, 2024.

​

"Don Wilding … calls himself a storyteller, but he is also somewhat of a scholar. He’s a very dynamic man who pulls you into the stories of Cape Cod."
— Rhoda Flaxman, Retired Professor of Literature, Brown University, and Founder, Open University of Wellfleet, 2017

(Don Wilding's Portland Gale lecture) helped with my research for my book (“Painting The Light”). A great connection.

Don provides unique insights about the oscillations of nature’s fury that only a writer and historian of his caliber can offer. And the stories… oh, the stories!

-- Braintree Jim, Target Ship Radio, WOMR-FM, Provincetown

 

Historic Storms of Cape Cod” is a really good read, with lots of great pictures. I warn you, it’ll terrify you!
