Aboard Lady

James A. Michener: Caribbean

Tony Horwitz: Blue Latitudes: Boldly Going Where Captain Cook Has Gone Before
A wonderful marina exchange find! (*****)

Trevor Corson: The Secret Life of Lobsters: How Fishermen and Scientists Are Unraveling the Mysteries of Our Favorite Crustacean (P.S.)
Seeing all the lobster trap buoys, seeing the lobster men at work generated a lot of questions. This is a WONDERFUL read, and I recommend for anybody who likes lobster! (*****)

Tom Neale: All in the Same Boat : Living Aboard and Cruising
Useful reference. (*****)

Chris Santella: Fifty Places to Sail Before You Die: Sailing Experts Share the World's Greatest Destinations
IV and Olivia gave us this for my birthday. We have already added two more to our bucket list...but it will be a long time until we are done. (*****)

Greg Mortenson: Three Cups of Tea: One Man's Mission to Promote Peace . . . One School at a Time
I loved this non-fiction account of a mountaineer's ongoing goal to build elementary schools in remote area of Pakistan and Afghanistan. (*****)

Claiborne S. Young: Cruising Guide To Coastal North Carolina
Another great cruising guide from Claiborne Young. (*****)

Elmore Leonard: The Hot Kid
This came to us via Bob Gaddis and Bernard Robinowitz. Crime novel set in Tulsa, Okmulgee and Kansas City in the 1930's. Tulsa readers will recognize many of the locations, and maybe know some of the people. (****)

Claiborne S. Young: Cruising Guide to Coastal South Carolina and Georgia (Cruising Guide to Coastal South Carolina & Georgia)
I found this wonderful guide to the area we'll be cruising over the next few weeks in a book store in St. Marys, Georgia. Like most guides, it works from North to South, so we are starting at the back of the book and working our way forward! (*****)
