Commentary During Books A Salty Piece of Land

#1 bestselling author Jimmy Buffett is back at last with his first new novel in a decade!

It's not on any chart, but the tropical island of Cayo Loco is the perfect place to run away from all your problems. If you're looking for a license to chill, come along as cowboy Tully Mars takes his pony to the shore-on an unforgettable Caribbean adventure as colorful and wonderfully bizarre as cocktail hour at your favorite expatriate bar.

From a lovely sunset sail in Punta Margarita to a wild spring-break foam party in San Pedro, Tully encounters an assortment of treasure hunters, rock stars, sailors, seaplane pilots, pirates, and even a ghost or two.

Waking from a ganja buzz on the beach in Tulum, Tully can't believe his eyes when a 142-foot schooner emerges out of the ocean mist. At its helm is Cleopatra Highbourne, the eccentric 102-year-old sea captain who will take him to a lighthouse on a salty piece of land that will change his life forever.

Once again, master storyteller Jimmy Buffett weaves a mesmerizing tale that combines both humor and emotional reflection. After all, one man's cathedral is another man's fishing hole. And in Jimmy Buffett's world, paradise is just a state of mind.

Commentary Regarding Books A Salty Piece of Land

Jimmy Buffett is as good an author as he is singer/songwriter. And A Salty Piece of Land is right up there, as a novel, as "Margaritaville," "Fins," and "One Particular Harbor" are as songs. Filled with humor, pathos, booze, and bonefishing (but not so much that any of these detract from the story), the book is a quick and entertaining read. I picked up this book while on vacation a couple years ago, and read it in two sittings. It's definitely a book I'll read again.Tully Mars is a cowboy from

Felt like I was sailing with the characters....enjoyed reading the book.

What an adventure! Move over Indiana Jones; Tully Mars is the sea worthy adventurer.Forced to leave Wyoming or face jail, Tully Mars hitches up his horse, Mr Twain, and rides to Alabama. From there, he takes a boat ride (with Mr Twain) into a new world of sailing, fly fishing, and new friends. Of course, he still has to hide from the bounty hunters who are after him which means he uses fake passports and by-passes customs/immigration control altogether. He meets many new characters (and they are

This book rambles on and on and on......I almost abandoned it several times. The first few chapters and the last 1/4 of the book were very good but the middle half to 3/4 of the book needed to be severly condensed. A better idea for this rambling story would have been to make A Salty Piece of Land into 3 or 4 books, with one book being about Cleopatra Highbourne (a fascinating character). The remainder of A Salty Piece of Land could be divided into 2 or 3 stories about the antics of Tully Mars.

....I did not know what I was getting into when I started to read JB. I am a fan of his music, I love Key West and hot sunny weather. I like Margaritas and that whole laid back life. When I read this book I left my wife and kids back in some cold midwestern town and I just moved down to the Keys and started drinking and sailing to the islands. Man, this book changed my life. I put suntan lotion on it cause it was so hot. Bout a guy and his horse who gets lucky and gets money and the rich girl at

Picked this "summer reading" book up at a library sale. Now there's a reason Jimmy Buffet is a singer and not a writer...but he's also a story teller. Initially the waves were a little rough but then I settled in. I liked the main character and his horse. Tully just seems to be blessed with the same luck Jimmy himself has had throughout his career. Just serendipity after serendipity. Still, sometimes it works like that. You end up somewhere you don't think you should be only to meet the right

everyone's submissions are far too serious and overly reflective for me. so, this is my attempt to rebel. jimmy buffett: drunken debauchery, cheeseburgers and flip flops flood your thoughts, yes? preposterous to *actually* consider the jimbo a bona fide author. he's no vonnegut. twain does circles around him i'm sure. but i challenge you to read his lyrics. what's more, open up this book. it's not a masterpiece. rather, it documents the life of a wayward wanna be cowboy-sailor. who cares right?
