Synopsis

THE BITTERSWEET VOYAGE OF THE GOLDEN SHIP HATTERAS


By Ira David Wood III


A deeply moving love story
set on the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
A writer's loving tribute
to a place, its history, and its people.




"An absolutely beautifully written love story! David Wood writes with the grace of the greats in this compelling novel about life on the Outer Banks of North Carolina in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Every word and page is to be savored in this historically authentic novel that will make you smile, laugh, sigh, cry, and cheer. The characters are colorful and believable, and perfectly placed in the narrative. This is more than a love story. It's a rich and lively history lesson from an author who has spent much of his life listening to the people who have lived in this magical place."


Bill Leslie, composer of ten musical albums and author of the 2008 book Blue Ridge Reunion.




"Love should dance,' an unforgettable woman says toward the end of this powerful book, David Wood's timeless love song to the Outer Banks, a book where his words dance. Wood, a wonderful director and actor, once again brings his storytelling art to the novel genre in this fine book. It's the real thing."


John Railey, author of the Outer Banks top-sellers The Lost Colony Murder on the Outer Banks: Seeking Justice for Brenda Joyce Holland and Andy Griffith's Manteo: His Real Mayberry.
