Dewey Lambdin has been a sailor since 1976 and has also worked as a director, writer, and producer in television and advertising. He is a member of the U.S. Naval Institute, the Cousteau Society, and the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, and is a Friend of the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, England. Besides the Alan Lewrie series, he is also the author of What Lies Buried: A Novel of Old Cape Fear. He lives in Nashville, Tennessee.
His mastery of period naval warfare gives his battles real punch.
(Previous Edition Praise)— Publishers Weekly
The brilliantly stylish American master of salty-tongued British naval tales.
(Previous Edition Praise)— Kirkus Reviews
Stunning naval adventure, reeking of powder and mayhem. I wish I had written this series.
— Bernard Cornwell, Author, Excalibur / Sharpe's Fury
If Horatio Hornblower is the gentleman’s sailor and Jack Aubrey is the thinking man’s sailor, Lewrie is of and for the working class. Pugnacious and randy, he’s a refreshing sea breeze.
