Local environmentalist Ned Tillman's latest book is now on sale


From Ned's posting:

After three, pandemic-weighted and creative-juices-flowing years, my new novel, Good Endeavour, has arrived just in time for spring and summer reading and graduation presents!

Get your copies now from Amazon.com, Barnes and Noble, or local bookstore.

Then come celebrate with Kathy and me at our book launch party at Bushel and a Peck on May 10, 5:00 - 7:00pm in Clarksville, MD. This is the fourth book in a series that engages, inspires, and motivates people to fall in love with the Earth and help protect it for generations to come. Please send me your comments on the book and then post your reviews on Amazon and/or Goodreads.

The Story

In 1695 a family of English colonists acquired the rights to 110 acres of land near the Chesapeake Bay and established Good Endeavour farm, which remained in the family for three centuries. Ned Tillman’s just released novel, Good Endeavour: A Maryland Family’s Turbulent History 1695-2002, is the story of the members of that family. But it is far more than a multigenerational family saga, it is also a window into the evolution of the nation we live in today. Good Endeavour "reveals how hard it has always been to make and maintain progress in a politically, socially, economically, and morally diverse society.”

From history to action to romance to nature, you will be inspired and see the relevancy of these characters as they struggle with many of the same issues we face today.
Come to the book launch to hear Ned and others talk about the book, and meet our friends who also care about literature, the planet, and past and future generations. We all need to find ways to support one another.
