Confederate Gold (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798640394764)

This book is purely fiction and does not portraying any person living or dead. I have taken some liberties with places like the Kingston Hall, although a real place I moved it from one part of town to another. The main characters in the story are names you can find in the area described but the characters are fictional and do not in any way represent any living person. The same with places such as the Washington Hotel, which is still operational and actually was visited by our first president none of the events I discuss actually happened there. The Eastern Shore of Maryland is a delightful place to grow up and/or live in. Any event in this book were in no way a reflection of any person or representive any of the great folks on the lower Eastern Shore of the Bay. There is a University of Maryland - Eastern Shore and Smith Island 10 layer cake is enjoyed by an extended group of eaters and growing group loving homemade cake, there was a Johnny's and Sammy's Restaurant in Salisbury which made the best pies I've ever eaten outside my wives. The Long's and Dryden's families are the major part of my heritage going back to the early 1600's but I don't know anyone by the name of Ben Dryden or David Long.This novel follows a young man who grew up in Baltimore City whose father had planned his future down to which school he would attend and where he would work...in his fathers law firm. The boy grew to be a man and to his father chagrin decided to follow a different path from graduating from MIT, being hired by the CIA to becoming an Earl in Scotland. The novel is very violent and has a lot of sexual situations. Some of the situation he finds himself in I created due to rumors I heard about were part of the Dryden family that are woven into Daves adventures along with his beautiful wife. I tried to make it a pleasant book to read with some history, some local lore and some fantasy.
