This project began in August 2014 and was completed in November 2015. The book is a comprehensive history of a once inhabited island in the Chesapeake Bay in the state of Maryland. After approx. 250 years of habitation, the island was ultimately abandoned by its residents 100 years ago due to creeping erosion and flooding.
