Pam George regularly writes about maritime history for Delaware Beach Life, Delaware Today and Coastal Sussex Weekly. She also writes on food, health, technology, travel and business for such publications as Fortune, Christian Science Monitor, Antiques Roadshow Insider, US Airways magazine and My Midwest. Raised in Devon, Pennsylvania, she now lives in Wilmington, Delaware, with her husband, Steve. As a result, she knows the difference between going to the beach (Delaware) and going "down the shore" (Jersey). This is her first book.
