James L Nelson recommends
The Traitor of Treasure Island (2019)
John Drake
"Simply an excellent book...The authenticity is palpable, the story engrossing, the characters completely human. Of the many spin-offs that Treasure Island has inspired over the years, this one truly stands out."
The Bermuda Privateer (2017)
(Nicholas Fallon, book 1)
William Westbrook
"Well done. An exciting tale."
For Love of Country (2009)
(Cutler Family Chronicles, book 2)
William C Hammond
"A rollicking good read full of battles, glory, and high seas adventure, all firmly rooted in this nation's maritime history that the author knows and portrays so well."
