An assassination attempt in Canada goes terribly wrong during a vicious snowstorm. When the sky clears and the bodies pile up, it becomes quite apparent that this was no hunting accident. Two men escaped. Bob Green was motivated by the love of his wife and family, Henekie by the death of his best friend and mentor, but mostly by greed.

Book Description
Master storyteller and beloved NPR commentator Carol Wasserman shares the quirky jobs and tribulations of her life among fellow Swamp Yankees in a little town on the Massachusetts coast, across the water from upscale Cape Cod. In the tradition of Bailey White and Garrison Keillor, she regales us with amusing and touching stories about the colorful characters and yearly rituals—from the absurd to the sublime—that keep her so closely tethered to the town and her ancient, crumbling house, which she describes as a “fragile, sinking, lovely old wreck of a place that I have come to confuse with my own flesh.” In these tales that have delighted millions of listeners, she describes the fine art of buying apples from squabbling orchard owners; the wild enthusiasms of her dearly departed husband, Aubrey, who was once sure he’d discovered a tiny Stonehenge by the side of the road; and the community of ladies who swim at suppertime, when the beach is deserted and they know “the ocean will be as warm as the primordial soup.” Swimming at Suppertime is the remarkable debut of one of the most original and entertaining new voices writing about the wondrous daily surprises and pleasures of American life.

Book Description
Excerpt from At Gray Gables and Walks Along the Shore of Buzzards Bay From Onset Bay we pass by Tempe's Knob, where the Bay grows narrower, and the many little islands glisten in the sunlight like so many jewels; around Great Hill, where Queen Awashauk made her treaty of peace. During King Philip's War, the gallant Captain Church met here the Queen and her tribe on their way to Sandwich to make peace with the Governor of the Plymouth Colony. The Queen entertained him cordially with 'fried eels, bass, tlat fish, and shell tish, ' and then, around a great bonfire of pine knots, she and her warriors pledged her allegiance to the English, thus weakening Philip's power and probably sealing his fate.

Book Description
Between Long Island Sound and the elbow of Cape Cod lies a richly varied cruising ground. A Cruising Guide to Narragansett Bay and the South Coast of Massachusetts is the definitive cruising guide to these waters. Its coverage extends to the headwaters of Narragansett Bay and miles offshore to the solitude of Block Island and Nantucket. Longtime area boaters Lynda and Patrick Childress and Tink Martin take you on a personal tour with all you need for a day, a weekend, or several weeks of cruising. They provide essential information on weather, tides, currents, and pilotage, as well as the availability of moorings and the closest place to pick up provisions. The unique harbor rating system shows at a glance what each anchorage offers in facilities, protection, beauty, and interest. Maps and charts help negotiate tricky channels or find that hidden marina. When you've dropped anchor and are sitting back in the cockpit after a day's cruising, the guide continues to inform you, pointing out places to go for food and entertainment, where to find hiking trails, picnic and fishing spots, wildlife sanctuaries, museums, and more. In addition, the authors give cruisers the historical context in which to view the passing scenery, and they impart a deep affection for the region's unique character.
