Synopsis

Bay Country, Tom Horton's bestselling book about the Chesapeake, is now available in paperback from Johns Hopkins. A native of Maryland's Eastern Shore, Horton has written about the environment for the past fifteen years in the Baltimore Sun. He is a writer who can mention herring and Proust in the same breath—and charm readers with no previous affection for either. His stories of oysters and sea nettle, elms and rivers, barrier islands and blue crabs, farmers and watermen, always reach beyond the local to the most universal of subjects.
