Maryland: Ghost Harbor

Here is one of Puccini's greatest hits, in an affordable version for complete orchestra. This story of love, art and death in Rome during the Napoleonic wars is today considered a classic for such arias as "Vissi d'arte" (I lived for art; I lived for love), but at its premiere in 1900 it was denounced as "a shabby little shocker," for things like Baron Scarpia's lechery and Tosca's termination of him with extreme prejudice.

Exciting Time Travel Story

Maryland: Ghost Harbor is an exciting story about time travel between today and the 1840's. Two good 8th grade friends learn first hand how terrifying slavery was when one is sent back in time to take the place of a runaway slave who was thrown forward in time. Not only is this an excellent story, it teaches some history, too. Young readers and adults would like this one. I sure did! I understand it is out of print. Wish that wasn't the case. But I see it might be available used. I found one in the library.

PUBLISHERS, PLEASE PUT THIS BOOK BACK IN PRINT!

It has been several years since I read this book, but it was very good. Elizabeth Massie is an excellent historical fiction writer and storyteller. All I can tell you is that Maryland was a slave state and that Anne is transported back in time and held prisoner on a slave ship. She must find a way to escape. The summary should have been longer, but it gives you a fairly good picture. This is just a great story and very well researched. Read it!
