Another Noah Marlin adventure

For readers of Mr. Byron's books, "Chesapeake Duke" is populated with the Marlin clan. The Duke in the title is the newest member of the Marlin family----a Chesapeake Bay Retriever. "Chesapeake Duke" is one of those so-called children's books. Indeed, it does not tackle issues with the same adult insight and tone as in "The Lord's Oysters" or "Done Crabbin". But it is still a pleasing read for admirers of Noah Marlin and his Chesapeake era.
