Cape Cod, Massachusetts, in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries was a set of small towns that lived by the water. Fishing fleets worked out of harbors along Cape Cod Bay and the Atlantic shore, salt works and coastal schooners carried goods along the coast, and whaling, once central to towns like Provincetown, had largely faded by the 1860s. Cranberry bogs spread across the sandy lowlands, and the railroad that reached Hyannis in 1854 brought summer visitors who filled hotels and boarding houses in Falmouth, Provincetown and other shore villages. Residents knew the peninsula for its shifting sandbars, fierce storms and long ship routes around its tip, which made the proposal for a canal across the base of the Cape a matter of local interest.
