Stern Men by Elizabeth Gilbert

Off the coast of Maine, Ruth Thomas is born into a feud fought for generations by two groups of local lobstermen over fishing rights for the waters that lie between their respective islands.  At eighteen, she has returned from boarding school-smart as a whip, feisty, and irredeemably unromantic - determined to throw over her education and join the "stern men"working the lobster boats.  Gilbert utterly captures the American spirit through an unforgettable heroine who is destined for greatness - and love - despite herself.
