The story "The
Bluff".
Set in Oswego, NY and based on a true story
The Bluff is the first book by Joseph Gunther, well-known photographer and travel writer.
Adult readers
will be moved to tears by the story and illustrations in this Gothic horror tale. Children will be enthralled by the
spectral tale.
Review: Arlene Spizman, owner of The Comic Shop says; "I was impressed when
I saw the book. It's a beautifully illustrated story that fits right in with our graphic novels, children's books
and comics. Telling a story through sequential art is obviously what illustrated books are all about and The Bluff does
that in its own unique way." Sue Sabiston's beautiful watercolors add depth to the story.

"Nightfall"
by
Joseph Gunther 93'
Midnight wind is were I dwell,
With
riders lost in a storms spell.
Trusting neither regions of the land,
While fires of
night burn in their hands.
Groping,
grasping, pleading voices,
Ask questions, but make different choices.
I alone remain vigilant within
their presence,
with secrets revealed in all there essence,
(You will find the rest of the poem in, "The Bluff")
NOTE: "Book lovers who have purchased an autograph copy of "The

Another review:
Bill Reilly, the owner of"rivers end bookstore" in Oswego, NY say's: "The Bluff is timeless, it will always be enjoyed over and over again by people
who read it!"
Also for the Halloween
theme literacy night at the Minetto, Elementary School, in Oswego, NY. Bill Reilly completely enthralled the over 300 hundred
students, parents, and teachers as he read from two of his favorite children's books. "The Bluff" just happened
to be one of them...!
Another review:
This one from a ten year old girl who
loves the story and has her own copy of "The Bluff", paid the author the ultimate compliment, quote: "Every time I read it, it gets creepier and creepier!"

This book is different from other
illustrated children's books.There are ten illustrated water-color paintings between its covers. It took Susan Sabiston
two-and-half years to do all of the water-color illustrations in this book. Which means (on average) it took Sue three months to complete one water-color painting for the book. So the
book itself is a work of art!
Since only a limited number of these books were
printed each one will become a collectors item - increasing in value as time goes by!
Plus! If you purchase
a copy of "The Bluff", both, the author and the illustrator will personally autograph your copy! Which will increase
its value even more!
Happy Jack and the Pirate Lass Chriss Clancy entertain at "Living on the Edge" event, organized
by Susan Gateley and held at the Pleasant Beach Hotel, in Fair Haven, NY. Next year their will be a bigger event, a pirates
weekend. To read more about the event "Living on the Edge", go to the sidebar and click on the link.
