Clark's Island
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Clark's Island is the name of a small island located in Plymouth Bay in the U.S. state of Massachusetts. It was named for the first mate of the Mayflower, the ship that brought the Pilgrims to New England. The island was initially considered for the location of the Pilgrim's settlement, but was rejected in favor of a site to the south, which became known as Plymouth, Massachusetts.[1] Today Clark's Island is a part of the town of Plymouth.
While it is rumored that Truman Capote wrote much of In Cold Blood while staying at a cottage there, he actually wrote the novella Breakfast at Tiffany's (novella).[citation needed]
