Review: 'An intriguing tale by a former foreign correspondent who followed his dream and built a hotel on a lake in a remote part of Poland. In the post-Communist era John Borrell found himself battling old style corruption and intimidation. As this elegantly written book shows, he eventually triumphed and continues to live the dream' --James MacManus, author of On the Broken Shore and Language of the Sea 'This is not simply another foreigner-makes-home-abroad story. Borrell was for many years a foreign correspondent for TIME and he writes with a reporter's keen eye for detail on his battle against corruption while building a lodge, and a new life, on a beautiful lake in northern Poland' --Alan Cowell, author of The Terminal Spy and New York Times Paris correspondent 'A deft weave of reporting, history and personal anecdotes, John Borrell's account of the travails, drama and misadventures of creating a luxury lodge in post-Communist Poland reads like a novel - one that could only have been lived, and written, by a consummate foreign correspondent' --Allen Pizzey, CBS News foreign correspondent.

In 1909, Dallas city leaders approved the damming of White Rock Creek to create a new water source for the increasing needs of a growing city. As a result, so much of the life and history of Dallas has echoed through the life and history of White Rock Lake. In the early decades, the lake was home to many private summer homes and boat houses, as well as hunting and fishing clubs. Soon thereafter, a bathing beach, sailing clubs, public boathouses, and picnic facilities were added. The Civilian Conservation Corps and the Works Progress Administration transformed the lake with more recreational and leisure amenities. World War II brought increased military uses that included a POW camp for German officers. Those early city leaders could hardly know that the lake they were creating 10 miles outside of Dallas would become an urban oasis enjoyed by over two million visitors a year.

The effect of any lake, especially the Great Lakes, in modifying the weather in nearby areas 2. The effect of elderly ladies, mysterious girls, and countless funerals, in upending your life, one summer at the beach It’s the summer after senior year, and Briggs Henry is out the door. He's leaving behind his ex-girlfriend and his parents’ money troubles for Lake Michigan and its miles of sandy beaches, working a summer job as a personal assistant, and living in a gorgeous Victorian on the shore. It's the kind of house Briggs plans to buy his parents one day when he’s a multi-millionaire. But then he gets there. And his eighty-four-year-old boss tells him to put on a suit for her funeral. So begins a summer of social gaffes, stomach cramps, fraught beach volleyball games, moonlit epiphanies, and a drawer full of funeral programs. Add to this Abigail, the mystifying girl next door on whom Briggs's charms just won’t work, and “the lake effect” is taking on a whole new meaning.
