Remember Jekyll Island was written to document the recent history of Jekyll Island State Park. This history involves a bitter battle between the public, state politicians, and the governing body of Jekyll Island State Park. It outlines the familiar story of greed and gain versus the will of the people. Here is what Charles Seabrook, well-known Georgia author and nature columnist, had to say about Remember Jekyll Island:
"Remember Jekyll Island is a thorough and detailed account of the Jekyll Island battle. Anyone who wants a good background on the bitter fight, and the many folks concerned about the future of Jekyll Island, should read this book. Remember Jekyll Island shows why we must be ever vigilant and ready to fight those—and there are a lot of them—who would sacrifice our natural heritage for a few lousy bucks. I never cease to be amazed over the power of greed, and this book shows how relentless and entrenched that power can be."
The official publication date of Remember Jekyll Island is August 2, 2010. Before then, copies will be available for purchase by June 4, 2010, on www.rememberjekyllisland.com. By June 30, the book will be available at www.Amazon.com.
