“Adak” was my first book. Since then the Press has published three others: “Sailors in the Holy Land,” “The Last Lincoln Conspirator,” and–next month–”Horrible Shipwreck!”

The last, “Horrible Shipwreck!” is the story of the wreck of the British female convict transport “Amphitriite” off the French Coast in August 1833. All but three on board drowned.

I’m now working on a fifth book, for the moment called “Congo, or the Short Life and Miserable Death in 1891 of Lieuternant Emory Taunt on Equatorial Africa’s Great River.”

It should be published in 2013.

I’d be happy to talk to anyone interested in my books or in writing for publication more generally.

Best wishes, Andy
