A nineteenth century tale about a twenty-first century borough and its peculiar history. John Byron Kuhner ferries the reader across the bay, to a world apart, and examines its lessons for work, leisure, and life. Illustrated with original drawings by Lesley Chen and hand-bound in an edition of 250 copies.
From the text:
The atmosphere upon a boat, once it has departed, is always different from the atmosphere upon the shore. There is a sea-change in the people and all their activities. The men who preached in the terminal stay there, for though their congregation moves onto the boat, their pulpit and parish remain upon the shore; there are other men, who preach only upon the boat. Other wares are hawked upon the ferry, besides spiritual ones, but I have noticed the rule that none sell in the terminal, who sell on the boat.
