An entire village once stood near Fort Morgan, Alabama. Then it disappeared.
When Captain Steve takes Logan, Addison, and JD searching for old Pilot Town along the shores of Navy Cove, Logan expects to find ruins, artifacts, or something that proves a community once stood there. Instead, he finds a quiet Gulf Coast shoreline where almost nothing looks like a village at all.
But the clues are still there.
Generations of bar pilots once watched the Gulf from Workbench Hill, waiting for sails on the horizon before heading out to guide ships safely into Mobile Bay. Their families built a community beside the water, where children grew up surrounded by ships, wildlife, soldiers from nearby Fort Morgan, and people arriving from around the world.
Then, in 1906, a devastating hurricane changed everything.
Following wildlife tracks, historical accounts, changing shorelines, and a few unexpected discoveries, Logan begins to understand that finding a lost place isn't always about finding what is still standing.
Blending Gulf Coast history, wildlife, mystery, and exploration, The Lost Village of Pilot Town invites middle-grade readers to discover a little-known chapter of Alabama maritime history while learning to look more closely at the stories hidden in the places around them.
