Going To Ground: Simple Life On A Georgia Pond

Going to Ground: Simple Life on a Georgia Pond

Unfulfilled by city life, in her mid-thirties Amy Blackmarr sold her paralegal business and moved into her grandfather's rustic fishing cabin to renew acquaintance with her South Georgia heritage. Mixing vignettes from her past with reflections on the present, she describes the surprising generosity of strangers and life without hot water; her two dogs, her snake phobia, and the occasional visit from an alligator; pheasant hunting with her third ex-husband; her memories as a two-stepping cowgirl; a real wagon train; and her grandmother's dying. Simultaneous hardcover release from Viking. 2 cassettes.
