A propos du livre

Biographie de l'auteur :

Author Karen F. Riley has been writing since she was 8 years old. Nationally published at the age 11; her work has appeared in NJ Monthly, the Asbury Park Press, Tri-Town News, The New Egypt Press and other media. Whispers in the Pines: The Secrets of Colliers Mills was originally introduced in May of 2005 after 5 years of research into the Colliers Mills Wildlife Management Area. Her 2nd book, Voices in the Pines: True Stories from the New Jersey Pine Barrens, was released in April of 2009. Her 3rd book is due out in April of 2010. Karen, her husband, Bill and their three children - Lisa, Laura and Chris - moved to New Egypt, NJ in 1992. With her home and office across the street from the northern fringes of the Pine Barrens, it was only a matter of time before this unique area captivated her heart. Subsequent book signings and talks and additional research broadened her knowledge and love for this area and bringing out a revised edition of Whispers in the Pines was a natural fit. She looks forward to encouraging and educating more people about this fascinating area. Illustrator Andrew Gioulis grew up in a family of skilled artisans. He started out as an illustrator and still incorporates sketches into his work as a graphic designer. Andrew holds a B.S. in Graphic Design/New Media Design from Roberts Wesleyan College and is currently working on his MFA. He has garnered 30 awards for his innovative style. Andrew created the illustrations and front cover art for Voices in the Pines. He developed his knowledge and a passion for the pinelands while working on that book. Whispers in the Pines gave him an opportunity to return to the sketchbook to capture once more this unique region. Andrew resides by the Jersey Shore where he can indulge his love of surfing and photography. KFR Communications is owned by Karen and Andrew.

Présentation de l'éditeur :

Colliers Mills is to most, a wooded stretch of undisturbed acreage, rich in wildlife and prime land for hunting. Situated on the northwestern fringe of the Pine Barrens, it is a common belief that this land has existed in this condition since the beginning of time. Yet, Colliers Mills has seen prosperous villages rise and fall and history made on its soil. It was once home to a politician destined to become the next state governor and Amelia Earhart even graced its presence. A land steeped in rich tradition, Riley offers a peak into this "jewel of the Pine Barrens." Whispers in the Pines: The Secrets of Colliers Mills is not only the story of its past and present, but also a glimpse into its future...
