Description
The Literary House Press at Washington College publishes a range of general interest books and scholarly monographs. Its publications present literary, scientific, historic, journalistic, environmental, and public policy writings of the Chesapeake Bay region. As publisher for Washington College, the press also publishes scholarly monographs written by faculty or taken from lecture series at the college. In addition, Literary House Press publishes works of literary merit without regard to subject or setting. To the uninitiated the eastern shore of the Chesapeake Bay connotes images of a water-riddled, flat landscape. This guide-book expands on these primary features with anecdotal entries on dozens of places to go and things to see along the way. Former Eastern Shore correspondent for the Baltimore Sun, Corddry combines a reporter's eye for observation with a passionate interest in the people and history of the region. She writes as much for the wanderer as for the destination-bound traveler, covering cities and towns from Ocean City and Salisbury to the northern areas of Kent and Cecil counties.
