Rivers of the Eastern Shore

Originally issued in the prestigious "Rivers of America" series and now again available, here are the beautifully crafted descriptions of the sluggish tidal rivers, never more than a few miles apart, that wind interminably through the rich, flat land of Maryland's Eastern Shore. On their banks stand some of the finest Georgian mansions in the Tidewater area. Footner's evocative text and the pen-and-ink sketches of Aaron Sopher make Rivers of the Eastern Shore one of the most enjoyable works in Maryland literature.
