Four Seas Ice Cream:: Sailing Through the Sweet History of Cape Cod's Favorite Ice Cream Parlor

by Heather M. Wysocki

Overview

For over 75 years, Four Seas Ice Cream, located in Centerville, Massachusetts, has not only been Cape Cod's favorite ice cream shop, it has also been a destination for people from across the nation and the world. The proposed History Press publication will include the history of Four Seas as well as tidbits about what makes it special from its famous fans to its local high-school employees who come back year after year to work at the tiny, seven-table shop that attracts tens of thousands of customers each summer. The book will also explain why they never, ever put sprinkles onto their ice cream; why a frappe is NOT a milkshake; why their medium-size ice cream cone is shaped like a triangle; and why vanilla is still their most popular flavor.
