"Chris Baer’s entertaining book of island miscellany, Martha’s Vineyard Tales: From Pirates on Lake Tashmoo to Baxter’s Saloon’ (Globe Pequot) gathers a wild mix of people and history, creating a portrait that’s quite a bit weirder and wilder than that usually associated with the picturesque island haven. Baer, who teaches graphic design and photography at Martha’s Vineyard Regional High School, includes a number of vintage images — of ships, of the interiors of pharmacies and markets, of old-timey characters in Victorian-era garb — and the book holds a number of curiosities and bits of history, pulled from Baer’s column in the Vineyard Times, 'This Was Then.'" — Boston Globe
