Chesapeake

Back to the day job this past week - but not before I tackled one of my favorite novels written by one of my favorite authors.

Chesapeake - by James Michener

I got hooked on Michener as a teenager when I read The Bridges of Toko-ri and Tales of the South Pacific.

This story chronicles the lives and stories of four families over the course of 300 years along the eastern shore of the Chesapeake. 

Great fiction and gripping history - even if you've read it a half-dozen times.

Michener is an artiste.
