The South Atlantic Coast and Piedmont: A Literary Field Guide

Paperback (Milkweed Editions June 26, 2006)
Children learning to fish in the tidewaters of Chesapeake Bay, a girl escaping Ocean City to see her first American oystercatcher, a family canoeing through Okefenokee Swamp, brothers catching a trophy bass together — these are some of the vivid stories, contemporary and historical, in this multilayered portrait of the South Atlantic Coast. Renowned writers and gifted observers limn the region’s seasons and moods, from autumn along the C&O Canal to kite flying on a spring day in South Carolina. Included are sections on common plants and animals, maps of the region, and a list of parks and nature centers for further study.
