Sailing Alone on Sundays

All writings contained herein were originally published in the Cape Cod Times between 1987 and 2013. They are substantially intact in their original form. I have done this deliberately to maintain the character and atmosphere of the times and occasions in which they were written over these 26 years. A special note to the reader: this is not a "Greatest Hits" album, nor is it a collection of "The Best Of..." I have selected the pieces for this collection in an attempt to provide the reader with a sampling of the diverse topics that my 1400 consecutive Sunday columns represent. Thank you for that opportunity. I hope I have been successful. Only you can be the judge of that. I do promise that I will make you laugh and make you cry. Enjoy...
