From the days of early tribes that hunted and fished to the tourists who later relaxed on the beaches, St. Simons Island has been part of the changing landscape of Georgia's coast. When Gen. James E. Oglethorpe established Fort Frederica to protect Savannah and the Carolinas from the threat of Spain, it was, for a short time, a vibrant hub of British military operations. During the latter part of the 1700s, a plantation society thrived on the island until the outbreak of the War Between the States. Never returning to an agricultural community, by 1870 St. Simons re-established itself with the development of a booming timber industry. And by the 1870s, the pleasant climate and proximity to the sea drew visitors to St. Simons as a year-round resort. Although the causeway had brought large numbers of summer people to the island, St. Simons remained a sleepy little place with only a few hundred permanent residents until 1941.

When British general James Oglethorpe landed on Georgia’s coast in 1733, he realized that the success of his new colony, Savannah, depended largely on its establishment and development as a commercial port. Only three years later, in 1736, the first lighthouse was built on Tybee Island. Beginning there at the mouth of the Savannah River, this volume travels down the coast, telling the very different stories of the Cockspur Light, Sapelo Light, St. Simons Light, and Cumberland Light, which is now located on a private island. Rich in history, these lighthouses help to define the story of Georgia’s 100-mile coastline. Of the lighthouses built, only five remain today; two are operational lights―Tybee Island and St. Simons Island.

Misha's and Nikki's Adventures: Our First Year Together is the first in a series of books that follow the lives of Misha and Nikki, two Siberian huskies who live with their owners, Pat and Kevin. The book begins when Misha and Nikki are just puppies who are quickly discovering that they really like people food. Then the pups learn that training their owners isn't a difficult job even though it can sometimes be a bit confusing. When something bad happens to Nikki in the dog park, Misha comes to her rescue. As you will discover, one puppy likes to swim and the other puppy doesn't, so both funny and scary events take place when they go camping. Finally, Misha and Nikki meet two special buddies whom they will see again in their second book - Here We Go Again.
