Stories of Maryland's Eastern Shore, all told in rhyme. Tales of love
and derring-do, of those who lived and loved in a place time almost forgot.

Tales of the pirate, Jonathan Bright, and the changeling child he adopted. Of Jack Tilghman, who came home from the war in 1864, and his
wife, Nicey, who waited, not always patiently. And of Harriet Tubman,
who truly had a Runaway Heart, if anyone every did.
