We wore out the first copy within 3 months, bought a second for the car. Comprehensive -- every road, trace, damp ravine (well, maybe that's going a bit too far) -- and accurate. Printed at a very readable scale. For someone used to NSEW-oriented streets in the SW US, a little time curled up with this map provided an absolutely essential re-orientation to the delightful aimlessness of southern MD roads.

This book is an excellent resource for mental health professionals who have a biopsychosocial perspective of the healing process. Hobson advocates for non-drug interventions which can bring balance to neurochemistry. An extensive discussion of sleep and its importance to health is also very thorough and thought provoking. A must read

I checked this book out of the library and now plan to buy it for my children. If you live near, have ever lived near, or have ever visited the Chesapeake Bay, you will find the text and artwork enchanting. The rhymes for each letter are clever and the illustrations are wonderful. In fact, anyone who lives on or visits the water (it doesn't have to be the Cheasapeake Bay) would find a connection to this book. A great abc book.

If you live on, near or visit and love Chesapeake Bay you should read this engaging and informative book. A collection of John Page William Jr.'s columns from "Chesapeake Bay Magazine," the book walks you through a year on the Bay and it's surrounding country. Once you've read it, you'll be amazed at how it sharpens your view of what is going on around you on or along the water. This is a book for anyone who enjoys the Bay in any way -- boating, camping, cottaging, or just sitting by the waterside on a quiet afternoon with a line in the water. Highly recommended!

This book contains literally hundreds of recipes for preparing blue crabs. Each page contains a photo of something crab related with a brief description. If you love eating blue crab, this book is for you.

Experience the history of the Chesapeake Bay through this recently published museum guide. Full of beautiful photos and in-formative narratives. This would surely entice the new Eastern Shore visitor and prompt old friends to return.

A wonderful guide that should be read by anyone who loves the Chesapeake and its inhabitants.

A delightful pistache with Chappell's usual witty touc

For readers of Mr. Byron's books, "Chesapeake Duke" is populated with the Marlin clan. The Duke in the title is the newest member of the Marlin family----a Chesapeake Bay Retriever.

"Chesapeake Duke" is one of those so-called children's books. Indeed, it does not tackle issues with the same adult insight and tone as in "The Lord's Oysters" or "Done Crabbin". But it is still a pleasing read for admirers of Noah Marlin and his Chesapeake era.
