Bound by the Sea: A Summer Diary

"BOUND BY THE SEA nets its readers with the ancient mystery of sun, sea, stone & sand. The youthful heroine's island summer is 'bound by the sea' while her discovery of self & of nature is unbound & set free. With rare simplicity the author has revealed the tender vulnerability of the young creative spirit in its first unfolding."--DOROTHY HEALY, CURATOR, MAINE WOMEN'S WRITERS COLLECTION.

It's a gem."--MARILIS HORNIDGE, THE ROCKLAND COURIER-GAZETTE. "HOWARD does an admirable job in balancing Sandy's swings from girlishness to maturity..."--DON KING, MAINE SUNDAY TELEGRAM.
