Broschiertes Buch

The Low Country Shvitz

Beschreibung

Rick Lupert's 27th poetry collection and latest humorous travelogue written in Savannah, Georgia (where ghosts inhabit the poems), Charleston, South Carolina (where the lady who gives out cookies is among the nicest people you'll ever meet), Asheville, North Carolina (the east coast's contribution to "weird" cities), and Charlotte, North Carolina, where ducks and frogs roam the streets without a single care. Join Rick and his mostly willing travel companion Addie as they explore all there is to do, see, and eat in the south. You'll eat biscuits. You'll be in the spot where the Civil War started. You'll wander through "Chicken Alley." Stow away on this hilarious, poetic vacation. It's much cheaper than buying plane tickets.
