Sample Book Insights:

#1 The treasure was buried five feet down in the South Carolina soil, in the shadow of a gnarled tulip poplar tree. But the tale doesn’t end there. Legrand found the code on a parchment washed up from a shipwreck.

#2 Claude Shannon was a boy who loved to tinker with things. When he was young, he built a fence that could carry electricity between two houses, and used it to communicate with his friends.

#3 Claude Shannon, the groom, was a traveling salesman who had arrived in Gaylord just after the turn of the century. He had bought out the business dealing in furniture and funerals, and lived to see it pay. His most significant stretch of employment was as Otsego County probate judge.

#4 Gaylord was a small town in northern Michigan that was shaped by its topography and climate. It was a perfect place to grow millions of acres of forest. The trees drew the lumber industry, and the first visitors and inhabitants were willing to contend with the climate for the rich cache of white pine and hardwoods.
