    Chesapeake-- all the above checked boxes.

    I read this book 7 years ago. I saw on internet lately and wanted for my small library. I was a history and political science major in college. Book encompasses my interest in development of the USA. Jane

    Chesapeake is great!

    I so enjoy James Michener historical novels, and have read Chesapeake before, but am really looking forward to reading it again. My only sad thing is that I thought it was a soft bound book not hard bound, as an elder person I find it hard to read in bed with a hard backed book.

    One of the best Michener book ever

    A well researched historical novel that gives a vivid picture of the history of the Chesapeake Bay over the centuries. Have read the book twice already and bought this copy because I gave my last book to a friend to read. Museums in the Chesapeake Bay such as in St. Michaels and Solomons Island reflect the history described by Michener.

    Deal of a lifetime.

    James Mitchener is an amazing writer and this was a deal of a lifetime. The book was in perfect condition and appeared to be brand new...hardcover to boot.

    From the Susquehanna to the Bay

    What a great read. From Clearfield and Cooperstown to the Conawingo how much history flows down and into the Chesapeake.

    Very interesting book and well worth reading

    Love Michener's book on Hawaii. Since we recently sailed in the Chesapeake and thought it would be a great book to read because we have been to the places described.
