Chesapeake Reflections A Journey on a Boat and a Bike

In the summer of 1990 the author sailed his schooner "Delphina" from the Florida Keys to the Chesapeake Bay. On his boat & bicycle, he visited over 25 areas, including remote communities where visitors seldom travel. From the first page of this entertaining book, the reader will feel like a welcome guest aboard "Delphina". Written in an easy style & full of humor, CHESAPEAKE REFLECTIONS is rich in interesting historical details of the towns & cities he visited in Maryland & Virginia. The warmth & friendliness of the Bay-area residents he met shine through the many conversations recounted in the book's lovely dialogue & leave the reader wanting to meet them personally. As the title implies, the author also gives the reader thoughts to consider as the journey progresses. Chesapeake Bay shares characteristics with other areas of our diverse environment & the reader is led to reflect on some of these parallels. CHESAPEAKE REFLECTIONS will be enjoyed by armchair travelers, boaters, cyclists, tourists & all those who would like to take a different look at Chesapeake Bay. The journey in the book is not the typical trip in a travelogue, but rather a trip of discovery full of amusing surprises.Carter, Ken is the author of 'Chesapeake Reflections A Journey on a Boat and a Bike' with ISBN 9780962879340 and ISBN 0962879347.
