| Publisher Description: "Reflections of Calvert" are the reflections of the author's childhood during the 1960's from the age of 8 to 14 while living in Southern Maryland, specifically in Calvert County on the tributaries of the Chesapeake Bay. In a place called Cape Leonard, Prince Frederick, Solomons Island and other surrounding areas, Frank tells of his life and story while living there. Within the pages of "Reflections of Calvert" are experiences, as portrayed by Frank. They are not only told with excitement, but with vibrant colorful descriptive memories of youth and a hint of embellishment. They are relived and brought back to life through mini-stories. Frank tells of a place and time only as he experienced it and as only he could tell it, through his eyes. As the 1960's were turbulent, unpredictable and historical, Frank gives us a young person's perspective, of a place that offered not only an innocence, but intertwined with cultural issues of the time it reflects. Those "Times were a Changing" in many different ways, as the author, tells his story. This is a book, that is a must to read if you are a resident or visitor to Calvert County as it is humorous, entertaining and easy going. Once read, you may desire to go back in time to Calvert County for a brief look at a unique place within your mind or you may read it again. |
