My elevator pitch:
Every day here on Delmarva we walk on footprints from days gone by. Yes, there are bad footprints—selfishness, greed, oppression, and other vices. But there are so many good footprints—courage, kindness, community, and other virtues.
This book is about the good footprints.
And something else: How those good footprints don’t just point back in time. They point forward as well, in ways that can inspire us to become better people and build better communities here in the 21st century.
You won’t meet many famous people in the book. Mostly, it’s about ordinary people doing extraordinary things. Leaping into action during storms and shipwrecks. Reaching out with helping hands across social divides. Bringing neighbors together in times of need.
Their stories will revive your spirit–and inspire you as you go forward in life.
