About The Author
I have been a world traveler for most of my life. I started his world adventure, in the 1950s, by joining the U.S. Navy. I have enjoyed both Atlantic and Pacific experiences, cruising the world. Following my Naval career, I have been a world traveler and worked in many challenging and rewarding venues. Always with me during these world adventures would be my favorite books. I began this interest in books of adventure at an early age growing up on a farm in Central America. I am now retired and his first novel, A Wizards Golden Stone, hopefully will not be his last.
