Hardback. Etat : Very Good. Lucy Carnegie, wife of industrialist Thomas Carnegie, dreamed of creating on Cumberland Island a home where her children would be safe from the smoke and soot-filled skies over Pittsburgh. Protected by the waters of the Cumberland Sound, the estate she built encompassed nearly the entire island. It was a perfect world, until the outside world intruded. Stone by stone it all came tumbling down. Wild horses now crop the grass around the burnt-out mansion. Rattlesnakes nest among the ruins. A century later, another family comes to Cumberland to walk among the horses and to accept what gifts the island has to offer: solitude, unspoiled wilderness, and wildlife free to roam undisturbed. Returning year after year, Rhamy and her parents explore the island and swim in the ocean. They picnic on the beach where servants once served champagne, shrimp cocktails, and crab cakes to the Carnegie family and their guests. They gaze at the chimneys surrounding Stafford house, all that remain of slave quarters that once housed plantation field hands. They mourn for Zabette, daughter of a plantation owner and his black servant, sold to a man who fathered her six children, then abandoned her. Always, everywhere on the island, the horses graze nearby, unaware of efforts by environmentalists to remove them from the island where they have lived for centuries. Traveling to the north end of the island, the family sits for a quiet moment in the church where JFK Jr. married Carolyn Bessette. Across the pasture is the shack where naturalist Carol Ruckdeschel has lived for fifty years and the porch where her lover lay dead, shot through the heart. In the campgrounds, on the beach, at the Dungeness dock, wild horses graze. For now, they are safe. Rita Welty Bourke is the author of Kylie's Ark: The Making of a Veterinarian. She's a regular contributor to literary magazines, including The Southwest Review, Shenandoah, Black Warrior Review, and The North American Review.…

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In 1751, Johannes Christian Welde sailed from an island in the English Channel to America. Two hundred and fifty years later, Natalie Welde boards a plane bound for the country her ancestor left behind. But for those intervening years, their paths might have crossed-she on a Delta plane flying at 38,000 feet, he in steerage on a ship bound for America.Natalie's brother, Billy, dreamed of visiting the land of his ancestors, but it was never possible. Though he always greeted life with optimism and humor, the suicide of his son, the chill of his home life, and the ravages of time had taken a toll. Billy is in hospice care when he learns of Nattie's planned trip to Europe. He asks that she bring him a worry stone from the river his ancestor traveled-from Heilbronn to the North Sea.After landing in Amsterdam, Natalie and her husband, Hank, board a cruise ship that travels up the Rhine, retracing Johannes' journey in reverse. While Johannes endured storms, sickness, and danger on the timber raft floating down the Rhine, Natalie's ship sails peaceful waters. Yet she is haunted by the tragedy of her brother's life and her desire to fulfill the promise she made to him.
