American Cancer Society

The Charlotte Inn, regularly ranked as one of the finest small hotels in the world, is the subject of a new photography book that showcases the grounds, buildings, and unusual collections of art and antiques admired by both guests and travel specialists. The book contains 168 pages of photographs shot over two years by well-known photographer Nina Bramhall, who spent two years shooting the inn. The book chronicles the results of 30 years of renovation and restoration of the premier inn on Martha’s Vineyard by owners Gery and Paul Conover. The inn was in 2006 voted by Travel + Leisure as one of the best small hotels in the world, and in 2007 was again lauded by the magazine for “an extremely high level of refinement, even for this cultured island.” The book includes a history of both the inn and the work done by the Conovers, in addition to the nearly 200 photographs. It has personal stories from the Conovers about the dedication it has taken to amass the fine furniture, museum-quality art and unusual collections of objects that give the inn the look and feel of one of Europe’s great country homes. Celebrities such as Jackie Kennedy Onassis and Princess Diana relied on its discreetness to help shelter them.
