This book is about a very unique area in southern Maryland where the Patuxent River and Chesapeake Bay meet. The area is rich in history and was once owned by the Peruvian Ambassador to the United States. There is a deep water harbor and was surveyed to become a destination point for the Baltimore and Drum Point Railroad. Later developed as a resort community it became Drum Point Beach and continues as such today. The author grew up visiting Drum Point and shares her memories and those memories of others who spent their summers in the area.

Dorothy Gleason was born in Washington, DC, and grew up in Arlington, Virginia. She is an abstractor by profession, with a love of history and research. Her family purchased property in Drum Point when she was just five years old, and kept that property until 2007. She has many memories of the area, and still loves the Chesapeake Bay and its many tributaries. She was married in Calvert County in 1962, and has three grown children. She now lives in Colorado, but goes back "home" whenever she can.
