Summary "Souvenir of Gay Head: Indelible Photographs" by J. N. Chamberlain is a photographic collection published in the late 19th century. This book serves as a visual documentation of Gay Head, a notable location on Martha's Vineyard, showcasing its landscapes, historical incidents, and indigenous culture through a series of indelible images. Its primary focus is to present an artistic and historic representation of the area, highlighting both its natural beauty and the significance of its inhabitants. The book features a variety of photographs capturing different aspects of Gay Head, including its lighthouse, local Indigenous people, and significant events, such as the wreck of the "City of Columbus." Each photograph is accompanied by context, depicting daily life, transportation modes, and the picturesque scenery of the cliffs and water surrounding the area. Through this visual narrative, Chamberlain not only preserves the history and culture of Gay Head but also invokes a sense of nostalgia for a place that holds both local and historical significance.
