Taking an important step toward a more inclusive and truthful understanding of Cape Cod's past, this book uncovers and reflects upon Cape Cod's role in the institution of slavery. Through this work of historical, creative nonfiction that also includes a guidebook component, author Susanna Graham-Pye uncovers the traces left behind by the enslaved individuals who lived on the Cape and whose contributions helped shape its communities.

Blending lyrical reflections with practical guidance, For the Unremembered explores significant locations across Cape Cod in search of a deeper understanding of the Cape's historical landscape. Features include:

- chapters that spotlight towns including Sandwich, Yarmouth, Barnstable and Dennis, Eastham, Brewster, Falmouth and Mashpee, Harwich and Chatham, Orleans, Wellfleet, Truro, and Provincetown;
- addresses and coordinates for key locations to visit on the Cape to pursue a deeper understanding of its past; and
- a foreword by Lynne Rhodes, president of the Cape Cod Chapter of NAACP.

By revisiting the places where people who were enslaved once stood and evoking the sights, sounds, and smells they might have experienced, For the Unremembered uncovers the traces left behind by those who were deliberately left out of mainstream history.
