About The Author
I am a retired management consultant and Historian by education. I amuse myself by self publishing Historical adventure novels and because it was almost impossible to get through the publishing industry maze and snails pace. I have self-published 5 novels, a book linking the British Empire's dominant 19th centtury cities Manchester(where I come from) and Melbourne and a magazine edition entitled Shakespeare and Management.
After a long period of word drought and ill health I am firing on all octogenarian cylinders and have 2 novels on the stocks and a unique sort of memoir that focuses on going forward rather than being an epitaph.
I have decided to test the market again and see if I can cover my costs this time. Embarking on a trans Australian boook selling odyssey and launch Parthian Peril in July

a light on the hill
The new Australian air-warfare destroyer Hobart swept out of the Williamstown yards and sped south to the Heads and the open sea. The bay was shrouded in morning mist and container ships, queuing to ride in on the tide, flashed their presence on its all-seeing radar screens, as the sleek grey-ghost lost them in its wake.
CAMBRIDGE AND ME
CAMBRIDGE AND ME
In my final year at school, I had done well enough in my A level exams to qualify for entry to any British university and had secured a Manchester city Bursary to pay for it. History was my passion, and I was expecting to go to either Bristol or Durham which had strong reputations in that discipline.
