Dayton Lummis

When Earl Was King Neptune: from the New York Island to the Everlasting Hills of Pennsylvania 1936-2006 Dayton Lummis

WHEN EARL WAS KING NEPTUNE is a keenly insightful account of the author's family, and of his personal experiences, observations and intersections with people, places and events in the last half of the 20th century in the Northeast portion of the United States. His story is told with great interpretative skill, wit and occasional humor and at times considerable cynicism. Part history, sociology and biography, the people, places and events, along with the author's sharp personal observations, that make up When Earl Was King Neptune, will stay with the reader long after the book is finished and put aside. They are of the life and mind before cyberspace took control
