Flying Cloud Booksellers
In the handsome boutique bookstore FLYING CLOUD Booksellers, Bluepoint Hospitality brings to Easton, Maryland an engaging range of volumes for readers of every age. Its approximately ten thousand titles, offer an engaging range of volumes that fall evenly into the categories of children’s literature, fiction, and non-fiction.
Maryland’s Eastern Shore is home to a number of the most elite racing sailors in the world, and this pursuit lends inspiration to the character of FLYING CLOUD Booksellers. The name refers to two renowned nautical vessels – one of which is the 19th-century record setting clipper ship, Flying Cloud, famously navigated by a woman. It is also a tribute to the log canoe, of the same name, built in 1932 by John B. Harrison. Log canoes, originally used for oystering in the Chesapeake Bay, later evolved into racing crafts. The Flying Cloud canoe retired from competition, and the Bluepoint Hospitality founders provided a grant to the Flying Cloud Log Canoe Preservation Trust, enabling the restoration of the boat to its past glory.
