Publisher's Note
In 1934 when Benjamin Bowling Wills purchased a fifty-year-old Hudson River steamboat to bring passengers to an amusement park he owned on the Potomac River south of Washington, D.C., even he didn't realize that he would soon abandon the amusement park and spend the next thirty-odd years running excursion boats in Washington ... and Baltimore ... and Boston ... and even in Houston, Texas. Over the years B. B. Wills owned and operated twenty-two different excursion boats. Twilight on the Bay describes this unusual development in exquisite detail. Relying on the private papers and correspondence of B. B. Walls himself, the author traces the evolution of Wills's empire from the Potomac River on to Chesapeake Bay -- and eventually to cities up and down the East Coast.
