There is probably no better known song about the American West than "Home on the Range." There are varying lyrics but the original appears to have been written by Dr. Brewster M. Higley as a poem in the early 1870s. It has been recorded by Neil Young, Willie Nelson and Frank Sinatra, and sung by the cast of "You're A Good Man, Charlie Brown" in the stage musical (1967). Most ships and large boats have a single port where the vessel is based and to which they may be expected to return when out of service. This port is commonly referred to as the ship's "home port." The home port may also be the port of registry but this is rarely the case. Ransom Riggs first novel, "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children," uses old photographs as clues through which the protagonist boy solves the murder of his grandfather. The book has been adapted to graphic novel form and will be released as a movie.
