Description

Those who know and love the Chesapeake will find the bay they treasure at the pages of Water’s Way: Life along the Chesapeake. The story of one in every of North The us’s most fascinating regions unfolds in the course of the sensitive photographs and prose of two men who have studied the Chesapeake all their lives. Photographer David W. Harp and author Tom Horton vividly portray how, as Horton writes, “the edges where land and water meet charm us all, from watermen to watercolorists and beachcombers to duck hunters.”

Water’s Way will guide you to “those rare, hidden nooks of the bay country where nature still appears as glorious and untrammeled as it did a thousand years ago.” It’ll also take you to less hidden, but equally intriguing sites throughout the Chesapeake’s reach as Harp and Horton depict the worlds of both nature and humans.

An intimate knowledge of and an unwavering reverence for the bay pervade Water’s Way. Harp and Horton are as attuned to the romance that still clings to the Chesapeake as they’re to the realities that inspire and threaten it. In a time when the region faces tremendous changes and challenges, Water’s Way is neither strident nor sentimental. Quite, it’s suffused with the fundamental respect for the bay which Harp and Horton see as key to its survival.
