Disappearing Delmarva introduces you to more than 70 people on the peninsula whose professions are endangered. Their work, words and wisdom are captured in the 208 pages of this hardbound volume, which features more than 60 photographs.
Along the back roads and back creeks of Delaware, Maryland, and Virginiain such hamlets as Felton and Blackbird in Delaware, Taylors Island and North East in Maryland, and Chincoteague and Sanford in Virginiathese colorful residents still work at the trades that have been passed down to them by grandparents and elders.
For most of us, Disappearing Delmarva is as close as well ever get to rubbing elbows with real treasure.
