A familiar cover caught our eye on the bookshelves of in Chincoteague Island, VA:

RICHARD MANUEL: HIS LIFE AND MUSIC, FROM THE HAWKS AND BOB DYLAN TO THE BAND is the official biography of one of The Band’s lead singers and pianist, who left an indelible mark on rock music.

On November 2, 1856, the American sailing vessel ‘Adriatic’ collided with French steamship ‘Le Lyonnais’ off the coast of Nantucket.

The American captain of ‘Adriatic,’ Jonathan Durham, rendered no aid, leaving the French crew to fend for themselves as ‘Le Lyonnais’ sunk. 114 people died in the collision and in the days that followed. Durham did not count on a hero, French sailor Jean-Marie-Louis Choupault, who helped 18 Le Lyonnais passengers and crew adrift on a small lifeboat in the brutal North Atlantic.

This incident, and the events that followed, came to be known in diplomatic circles as “the Adriatic affair”.

The wreckage of the ‘Le Lyonnais’ ship was not discovered for over 160 years, until last summer, when author and when shipwreck hunter Jennifer N. Sellitti and her crew found its remains.

After eight years of research, Sellitti now explores the full story of this maritime event, from the collision to subsequent diplomatic tensions, in THE ADRIATIC AFFAIR: A MARITIME HIT-AND-RUN OFF THE COAST OF NANTUCKET.

This thrilling story is now available at your favorite bookseller (link in bio for details).

A beautifully written reflection on plants, nature, and philosophy as explored through the letters of one of the Enlightenment’s greatest thinkers, Jean-Jacques Rousseau.

Between 1771 and 1774, Rousseau composed eight letters offering lessons in botany. These letters reverberated throughout Europe in the early nineteenth century, and remain, at heart, a genuine invitation to observe plants.
