Congrats to Mike on his new book and all the best with your work!
War and Piracy (Book One)
By Michael St. John
A Welsh adventurer, Owen Glenn, escapes life as an indentured servant in Barbados, and starts a new life in the hardy colony of Jamaica - just conquered from the Spanish by England in the mid-17th century. His life and career illustrates the domination of buccaneers and pirates in early Jamaica, and paints a portrait of the “wickedest” city in the West Indies - Port Royal. When Owen settles in the north of this new English colony, he and his family soon succumb to a Maroon curse, one that his descendants can never escape... An historical epic, War and Piracy opens the family saga of the Glenns in the series, 'The Curse of Glenn Hall'.

Thanks....
I'm getting on in years (aren't we all!), so I've decided that I need to finally get around to publishing my book.
There is so little historical fiction about Jamaica, or the Caribbean at large, and what little there is tends to be rubbish. So, I've decided to try my hand at it...I hope I've done an okay job.

Thanks, BP, you're my first reader....badpepper wrote:Mike,
Just downloaded. Hope to get to it this weekend!
It's the first of a four-part series, the second of which I plan to put up at the beginning of August.
Thanks Bally, that ad is excellent!
No hard copy yet, Maps, but if you want to download it from Lulu, you can read it on your Kindle, or something like that....
I'm hoping Afro will give it a try, because if he did, he would discover that Caribbean slaves worked on sugar estates, not cotton plantations!
