Silver Strand The Long Beach Saga

Bridget O’Herlihy is about to freeze to death on the deck of the shipwrecked Mexico, 200 yards from the shining silver sands of a barrier beach 3000 miles from Ireland. Is it her feeble prayers, her plucky resourcefulness, or the mystical power of the relic she holds that delivers her from a certain doom? Silver Strand The Long Beach Saga is a work of historical fiction telling the story of a beautiful island off the coast of Long Island. The book traces the history of Long Beach from the 1837 shipwreck through Superstorm Sandy in 2012, paralleled by the mystery of the lost Staff of St. Patrick via tales of: The Long Island Rail Road’s Gilded Age 1880 Long Beach Hotel The birth of a beach resort for the moneyed set by William H.
