Coming Soon: A Fourth Book

         
Lawrence DeWolfe Kelsey, taken just before the Finn Ronne Antarctic Expedition of the 1940s.



            Shortly, I hope that my fourth book will be available for sale and distribution, probably sometime in late November, 2017.



               This next book is the biography of the explorer, Lawrence DeWolfe Kelsey, who was a WWII ship's radio officer, at first in the Merchant Marine. Next, he became the radio officer on the Finn Ronne Antarctic Expedition of the late nineteen-forties. Afterward, he held assignments in the North Pole and then on to Afghanistan.  The book is not only a story of the occupational life of this man, from a fascinating era, but is also a story of his challenges, sorrows and triumphs. Lawrence Kelsey is also my father.

               I hope that you are able to make time to read what has been my most challenging book to write thus far.  Thank you for your support and encouragement with regard to this project..



  It will be entitled, Lawrence DeWolfe Kelsey: The Life of the Explorer

Embroiled in a Writing Marathon


                   I apologize for my minimal presence on the blogs.  I have been writing my fourth book which is a true story of the life of a modern day explorer. It has been very challenging, in part, because it has required so many interviews of people who were involved in an expedition or a project of some kind.  I have reached 102,000 words thus far. The project is not yet finished, and then the process of revisions must take place before it goes on to editing.   Thank you for checking back.  Have a lovely autumn.
