Pirate Moon & Other Stories
David Healey
This collection gathers David Healey's previously published stories and essays about the Chesapeake Bay region. The essays here touch on everything from the origins of the unique dialect known as Delmarvese to an after-school job running a trapline. In the fiction pages, ride along with Confederate cavalry gone astray on the way to Gettysburg and root for a widowed lightkeeper who makes a desperate stand against a German U-boat attack. Encounter Captain Kidd during a confrontation with pirates on the Delaware shore. In "The Wheatfield War," discover the tragic fate of Lord Byron's cousin-in-law during the War of 1812. In the Chesapeake Bay region, there is no shortage of stories wherever the past meets the present.
