tales, home cookin and good old-fashioned fun!
Like a crafty youngster leaving a trail of
crumbs to catch a bird, Bergquist lures readers along a trail of memories leading from the
phosphate-mining areas of Pierce and Mulberry, Florida, to Washington, D.C. and back to
Florida to Anna Maria Island. Along the way, readers will encounter a cast of real-life
characters ranging from Floyd the Flim-Flammer to J. Edgar Hoover; from the inventor of
the digital computer to Olga the Headless Teuton. Crackers Crumbs is a book
that will be read, treasured and reread for many years to come.
The Anna Maria Island edition of Crackers
Crumbs contains the complete series of Crackers Crumbs columns that
appeared in the Anna Maria Islander and the Islander Press, all of which
are presented in their original versions. The book also contains all of the Crackers
original illustrations, many of which are photos and drawings created by the author.
All profits from The Anna Maria Island
edition of Cracker's Crumbs go toward funding of the Anna Maria Island Community
Center. A few copies of this edition, including several autographed by
the author, may
still be available and you may obtain one by contacting the Anna Maria Island Community
Center 1-941-778-1908.
