Delaware Curiosities Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities & Other Offbeat Stuff

Your round-trip ticket to the wildest, wackiest, most outrageous people, places, and things the First State has to offer! See beautiful butterflies flutter by at a local state park; a burned-out lighthouse on the side of the road; and the ghosts of forgotten mariners at a ferry launch site. Meet a rubber-band ball record holder; a lucky, duck-drawing artist; and a grape-growing musical genius who founded the state' s first vineyard. Visit the country' s last working canal used for shortcuts; the gap where exit two on I- 95 should be (sorry, no shortcut here!); and a mansion-turned-museum' s gravity defying oval staircase-- a cut above the rest! Whether you're a born-and-raised Delawarean or a recent transplant, author Beth Rubin will have you laughing out loud as she introduces you to the neighbors you never knew you had and takes you to places you never knew existed-- right in your own backyard.Rubin, Beth is the author of 'Delaware Curiosities Quirky Characters, Roadside Oddities & Other Offbeat Stuff', published 2007 under ISBN 9780762743353 and ISBN 0762743352.
