The Cheapeake |
If you want to know about a place, read a
James Michener book: he did all the research for you. Among other places, in
superbly crafted fiction, nonfiction, and masterful blends of both, his books
can take you to
Alaska
The Caribbean
The Chesapeake
Colorado
Hawaii
Iberia
Israel
Iberia
Poland
Texas
To quote Dr. Seuss, another favorite author
of mine, “Oh, the places you’ll go!”
Today is the 110th anniversary of
Michener’s birth. I will celebrate appropriately by re-reading one of his many
books – Hawaii, my favorite.
Or do I like Chesapeake best?
