Download or read book Pelican Watch written by Rose Senehi and published by Ingalls Publishing Group. This book was released on 2007 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicky Sullivan nurses injured animals...but now she's going to heal herself. She flees to a South Carolina barrier island and discovers a kindred spirit in Mac Moultrie, a salty retired fisherman. They ease into a leisure routine of shrimping in the marshlands--unaware of a murder committed to snatch old slave lands from a young black woman. From the moment Nicky lays eyes on Trippett Alston, she's smitten. This Southern gentleman, however, is more interested in fighting off the condominium development threatening his beloved island and its turtle nesting grounds than in the forlorn Yankee artist. Pelican Watch is a tender love story told against a backdrop of murder and suspense, laced with the flavor of South Carolina's lush low country and the unforgettable people who work to preserve it.

Download or read book The Pelican s Briefs written by Mark R Joneschiet and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2001-06-24 with total page 202 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Come celebrate a town, Klamath Falls, Oregon—official population 18,538 (people, that is—the cows you will have to count yourself)! Join the author in a homespun journey through the past in a town that is the epitome of all hometowns. Located on a route that is the shortest distance between Los Angeles and Seattle, this town seems inocuous enough, however, a peak beneath its exterior reveals enough oddities, quirks and interesting characters to fuel the tabloids for centuries. This rendering of the author's memoirs offers shameless name-dropping of well-known personalities, recounts of events that have local, near-legandary status (among those involved at least) and some actual history that didn't quite make it into the history books. Fade into the past to an era devoid of terms such as "Duuuude", "Sweeeeet", and "Da Bomb!" Words that will characterize this world are more like "Golly", "Gosh", "Gee Whiz", and "Shucky-Darn." Let a mildly embarrassed pelican guide you on this tongue-in-cheek and often, ironic visit to a place that isn't too far from everyone's growing up experience.
