Sarasota, FL Author Publishes New Book

Mountains Beached in My Memories, a new book by Michael J. O'Loughlin, has been released by RoseDog Books.

For much of the past forty years, Michael J. O'Loughlin has sought peace and seclusion in unspoiled, natural beauty. His teaching career facilitated summer ski treks in Canadian wilderness areas, backpacking along the US continental divide, and canoeing/kayaking treks on the Great lakes. His growth during those experiences was enhanced by teaching positions on Vermont's Burke Mountain and Puerto Rico's NW coast.

The incredible beauty of the Adirondack Mountains, the sunset grandeur of Oswego, and the waterfall wonders of Watkins Glen-all in upstate New York-provided inspiration for him and playgrounds for his children. In recent years, his life along Florida's Gulf Coast continues to kindle his muse. His photographic "bent" provided most of the photos that accompany these poems. Chip, Tom, and Is contributed the rest.

Mountains Beached in My Memories is a 62-page paperback with a retail price of $15.00. The ISBN is 978-1-4349-8386-2. Rose Dog Books of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania published it.
