CROSSINGS - by Stephanie L. Fowler
 
Crossings is a collection of Eastern Shore stories that delve into the complex relationships and histories that exist here on the Delmarva Peninsula.  These stories look at the tumultuous bond between man and nature and the price man must frequently pay for his naïve mistakes.  Extensive research and interviews result in intriguing stories about Franklin City (now a ghost town), Chincoteague, Crisfield, Stockton and more.  Fowler is the 2001 recipient of the Sophie Kerr Prize, given to the Washington College (MD) senior with the most literary promise.  The Sophie Kerr prize is the largest undergraduate literary award in the United States.   Several of the stories in Crossings were part of that award-winning collection.
