Tully Mars is an ex-cowboy meandering through the tropics searching for . . . well, something. What he finds are unforgettable characters (you must meet Cleopatra Highbourne, a 101-year-old sea captain!), a few adventures, a few inspiring moments and don't forget the pirates, ghosts and bounty hunters!
The key to reading A SALTY PIECE OF LAND is to chain yourself to a chair, because you're going to want to go island-hopping. Like Buffett's music, this book will flow through you, enchanting your sense of adventure and inspiring a need to go meet wacky characters in the tropics. Seriously. A lot of fun.
It's not on any chart, but the tropical island of Cayo Loco
is the perfect place to run away from all your problems. If
you're looking for a license to chill, come along as cowboy
Tully Mars takes his pony to the shore-on an unforgettable
Caribbean adventure as colorful and wonderfully bizarre as
cocktail hour at your favorite expatriate bar.
From a lovely sunset sail in Punta Margarita to a wild
spring-break foam party in San Pedro, Tully encounters an
assortment of treasure hunters, rock stars, sailors,
seaplane pilots, pirates, and even a ghost or two.
Waking from a ganja buzz on the beach in Tulum, Tully can't
believe his eyes when a 142-foot schooner emerges out of
the ocean mist. At its helm is Cleopatra Highbourne, the
eccentric 102-year-old sea captain who will take him to a
lighthouse on a salty piece of land that will change his
life forever.
