The setting of This Quiet Place is an outland of pine, caramel sand and clean tidewater on Cape Cod. It is to this "quiet place" that Everett Allen returns each year in early autumn, to walk the Cape's beaches and marshlands, to sail in its shallow reaches, to mark sunrise and nightfall and the passage of the seasons. This Quiet Place is a celebration of the ties that bind man to nature, and a mirror to the ceaseless urgings that bind man to man.
