This high-paced intrigue, skillfully woven by experienced pilot, sailor and retired Navy Commander, Tom Hudgin, will captivate young adult and adult readers. Tom Hannaford finds mysterious lettering on a barnacle encrusted plank floating in the surf along a deserted North Carolina beach. With insatiable curiosity and after some questionable research, Tom convinces his friend, Chris, to fly with him in Tom?s Cessna Cardinal on a leisurely vacation in the Bahamas near where, coincidentally, Tom suspects his message from the sea originated. When they decide to land to investigate remote Cat Island, they stumble upon a quite shocking discovery that sends them running for their very lives, using all their skills and cunning just trying to survive. A lovable thirteen year old island boy, who had hustled them at the George Town airport, then unexpectedly twists the plot to an exciting climax. Tom Benenson, Editor of Flying Magazine says "Rarely do authors, who include flying sequences in their novels, get it right. Tom Hudgin, in Incident at Cat Island, has filled his mystery/suspense novel with enough aviation details to keep any pilot happy." .

Just off the coast of the Gulf Islands National Seashore lies Cat Island, an isolated, T-shaped sliver of sand with a remarkable past. A coveted hiding place for Jean Lafitte's pirate treasure in the late eighteenth century and illegal booze during Prohibition, Cat Island also witnessed the first shots of the Battle of New Orleans, an encampment for Seminoles during the Trail of Tears and the first lighthouses on the Mississippi coast. As a child, author John Cuevas learned that his family had owned and lived on the island for three generations beginning with his ancestor, Juan de Cuevas, referred to as "The King of Cat Island," who received it by way of a Spanish land grant. In this engaging work, Cuevas chronicles the historic events that occurred on the island's shores and offers a tribute to the legacy of one of the Gulf Coast's pioneer families.

Cat Island, just off the Mississippi Gulf Coast shoreline, has been home to some of the most dramatic events and remarkable stories in the nation's history. While some of these stories are fact, others are colorful fables passed down through the ages with such conviction they have become true in the hearts and minds of many. Between fact and fiction is the undeniable reality: Cat Island is one of the most historically significant landmarks on the Mississippi Gulf Coast. Featuring over 160 black-and-white photographs by Jason Taylor and a foreword by Mississippi's Secretary of State Delbert Hosemann, John Cuevas's Discovering Cat Island guides readers through Cat Island with stories and histories of twenty-nine sites--both real and imagined--of the legendary barrier island. Originally owned by the Cuevas family as part of a Spanish land grant to Juan de Cuevas in 1781, Cat Island boasts a colorful history that includes events related to the notorious pirate Jean Lafitte and the outlaw James Copeland, both of whom were thought to have buried their stolen treasure somewhere on the island; the Battle of New Orleans; and the War of 1812. The island served as one of the staging areas for the Seminole forced to abandon their homes and take part in the Trail of Tears. In the twentieth century, the island was a convenient transfer point for gangsters and local bootleggers shipping booze during Prohibition before becoming a US military training camp site during World War II. In 1988, Cat Island became the location of the first oil drilling ever in the Mississippi Sound and in 2010 was one of the islands devastated by the BP Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

Imagine, if you will. One hundred and fifty years ago a new island appeared 400 miles off the coast of California. It is a very large island, almost two and a half times the size of California. Its shape is roughly that of a snarling lion head. It is very rich and fertile. Soon after it was discovered it was seeded with grasses, trees and flowers. Plants of all descriptions and a myriad of animals were soon enjoying a prolific lifestyle. A lot of people are afraid of the island. There have been many frightening stories about the island. Those of us who live here are not frightened. The others who inhabit the island are neighbors. Would you like to come to the island and meet the neighbors?

Growing up on the island is like a child¿s first glimpse of the stars at midnight. The Bahamas in the early sixties, seventies and eighties was a village with excitement. You can tell by listening to the old folks about the good old days. We went crabbing in the bush, climbing the coconut tree, picked sapodilla and coco plumbs from the wild and made pepper sauce from the garden in the back yard.Life was simple, but the ability to persevere as a people strengthen the spirit of hope. Some of the most meaningful and memorable experiences of my childhood are connected in part to the stories you will read about. I hope you enjoy my vatae of life on Cat Island.
