You couldn\\\'t make this up if you tried. A woman with no college degree becomes one of the country\\\'s experts on sea turtles while living on the remote Cumberland Island off the coast of Georgia. Remarkably she seems to attract men like flies to honey and has a rich, if not bizarre personal life, divorcing twice, shooting one lover all while serving up roadkill. Well written, the book contains a great deal of controversy over the meaning of what is a national wilderness and how does man impact the endangered species of our planet.
I learned a lot about an island I didn’t even know existed. Also learned about sea turtles. Fascinating.
