The main project I have been working on for many years is a biography of British Admiral Sir Erasmus Gower. Gower was born in 1742 and served for over 50 years in the navy, reaching the rank of admiral of the white in 1810. He died in 1814, having recently served as Governor and Commander-in-chief of Newfoundland. Much more to follow. Keep posted!

Another year of editing completed. I just seem to get it right and new material becomes available. This time I have drawn a line under the project and have stopped researching and concentrated on my writing.
The next 4-5 months will see the final edit before submission to a publisher.
June this year will mark the 200th anniversary of Admiral Gower's death. I would have liked to have the book ready for publishing by then but it wasn't to be.
