Maggie Lorena Ryan leaves her husband and sons looking after the farm and homestead in Colly, North Carolina, in the midst of the Roaring Twenties while she journeys north to publish her novel -- but surprising events soon transpire both back home and in Boston. When Maggie returns, it's with a changed vision of her writing career, her love life, and most of all, her home and family. If you've followed the stories of Maggie and the indomitable Aunt Mag in BETWEEN THE RIVERS, you'll enjoy renewing your acquaintances with these old friends and meeting their kin from BANDEAUX CREEK. Carolyn Rawls Booth draws on an intimate knowledge of Southeastern North Carolina history, culture, and characters in this tale of ambition, crime, love, heartbreak, and what it means to come home.

Over the fast-paced and fascinating years that Bill McIlwain spent as editor of some of North America's most prestigious newspapers, he met and worked with the great, the petty, the famous, the eccentric. He also confronted his problem with alcoholism. In Dancing Naked with the Rolling Stones, McIlwain tells both sides of the story and how he learned to cope, finding peace and happiness in radical ways. His humble, humorous, thought-provoking account gives readers an intimate glimpse into American newspapering and, at the same time, into his own soul. From the heyday of Harry Guggenheim and Alicia Patterson s groundbreaking Newsday to Boston and Washington insider politics, from the world-changing events of the 1960s and '70s to the Sun Belt suburbs of the 1980s and '90s, Bill McIlwain's tales entertain and inspire.
