Did you know that escapees from an escargot farm keep the snail police on their toes? The Outer Banks has a long history of unconventional characters and curious occurrences. A larger-than-life likeness of Sir Walter Raleigh was once beheaded in Manteo, and the town gave itself a royal makeover in honor of a visit from a princess. The village of Corolla was integral to the early years of the Space Race. Local author Sarah Downing shares these and many more offbeat tales.

The Salty Mountain is an historical narrative that weaves together the stories of three generations of women from a mountain village in the Campania region of Italy. Religious faith, witchcraft, the German occupation, birth, death, survival and prayer underlie this family's journey to America and their new life in Little Italy, the Bronx. It is a vibrant chronicle of events both humorous and deeply poignant, revealed through a breathtaking choreography of culture, geography and personalities, past and present, that revolve around the importance of home and family.

In the opening pages of Moby Dick, Herman Melville called New Bedford, Massachusetts, “the dearest place to live in, in all of New England.” But the old fishing port and manufacturing center—once one of the richest cities in New England—has withered in the modern economy. Its once-prosperous fishermen now struggle with government regulations and fished-out seas, while its empty factories now offer more work to the Fire Department than anyone else. In Down at the Docks, Rory Nugent tells the “riches to rags” story of this iconic American town through beautifully told and unsentimental portraits of its residents. Their lives inform a eulogy to the distinctive ideas, traditions, and culture that is about to disappear from the waterfront.
