Description:
"Tangier is a mere dot of land in the middle of the Chesapeake Bay situated just below the Maryland-Virginia line. This study is an account of the Islanders' beginnings in the late 1700s, a portrait of them as an isolated community under siege, and a description of the way they talk."--BOOK JACKET.
