Cracker's Land excerpt:
Locals are having a hard time coming to grips with the disappearing landscape and its effects on their livelihoods and future, indeed, the future of their culture. They are stuck in an area where they can only re- sell their houses to others in the community (who would buy here after hearing of this?), or watch their homes become inundated every time a storm hits to the west of here. Meanwhile, the marshes erode further, barrier islands disappear little by little, and the ground sinks another ½ inch a year in some spots.
