Description
America has nearly 5000 miles of coastline, and in this text Walter Cronkite, former CBS news anchor, provides a guide to it. At Maine's eastern tip, discover the British warship captured during the Revolution; on islands along the Texas coastline explore a sanctuary for migratory birds; and on Califronia's Redwood coast, visit Fort Ross, a replica of the 1812 Russian settlement that began as a fur trading post. In this travelogue discover many stories about the coastline that Walter Cronkite loves so much.
