Excerpt from Casco Bay Yarns This little book was begun, quite unintentionally, five summers ago by my going out early one morning to help haul a line of lobster pots in order to gather material for a magazine article. What I learned gossiping with the lobstermen was so interesting that I was tempted to visit a neighboring island, and I was gradually coaxed into making a regular pilgrimage among the "Calendar Isles." In the end, I spent several weeks in the Library of the Maine Historical Society, digging out the early history of the Bay. A great many very different people have contributed to this book - some a fact or a fable: others a glimpse of character or a typical phrase. I cannot thank all individually, but I must especially thank Mr. Robert G. Albion, of Portland and Great Chebeague Island, and Miss Evelyn L. Gilmore, Librarian of the Maine Historical Society, for their help in collecting historical material. I am also indebted to the editors of "The Casco Bay Breeze," "Forecast," "Travel" "Lippincott's" and "Outing" for their permission to publish here the "yarns" that first appeared in their magazines.

A pregnancy pact between three teenaged girls puts their mothers' love to the ultimate test in this explosive new novel from Barbara Delinsky, “a first-rate storyteller who creates characters as familiar as your neighbors.” (Boston Globe) When Susan Tate's seventeen-year-old daughter, Lily, announces she is pregnant, Susan is stunned. A single mother, she has struggled to do everything right. She sees the pregnancy as an unimaginable tragedy for both Lily and herself. Then comes word of two more pregnancies among high school juniors who happen to be Lily's best friends-and the town turns to talk of a pact. As fingers start pointing, the most ardent criticism is directed at Susan. As principal of the high school, she has always been held up as a role model of hard work and core values. Now her detractors accuse her of being a lax mother, perhaps not worthy of the job of shepherding impressionable students. As Susan struggles with the implications of her daughter's pregnancy, her job, financial independence, and long-fought-for dreams are all at risk. The emotional ties between mothers and daughters are stretched to breaking in this emotionally wrenching story of love and forgiveness. Once again, Barbara Delinsky has given us a powerful novel, one that asks a central question: What does it take to be a good mother?
