BANSEMER'S BOOK OF
THE SOUTHERN SHORES
Roger Bansemer shows us the Southern shores of the United States as only an artist can. His brush finds beauty in the simplicity of a sandbur, in the intricacy of ship skeletons, in the tangled webs of shrimp nets, and in the weathered faces of ship captains.

Bansemer's Book of the Southern Shores is an artist's journal, describing in words and images the colorful places nestled up and down these coasts as he strolls through the towns, guides his boat along the white beaches, and chats with the locals. The artist's goal is to capture the natural beauty of the shores and share it before it disappears.

Travel along to discover the wildlife and the people who call these shores home. Join Roger Bansemer as he explores the diversity of the South's coastline-from the sponge divers of Tarpon Springs, the basket weavers of the Virgin Islands, and the alligator wrestlers of the Everglades, to the marshlands of coastal Georgia, the lighthouses of Florida, and the song of the cicada throughout the South.

"Under his tutelage I saw things that I had not noticed closely before, and a friendship developed, because I realized that with his artist's eye he could see things I didn't." — James Michener

". . .with his unique artistic and reportorial talent, Bansemer gives us a nostalgic, sometimes humorous, occasionally tart tour of its wonders. His brush and his pen capture not only its beauty but its fragility in the hands of man." — Walter Cronkite
