Greetings forum,
Having completed a voyage from Bellingham to Ketchikan on the Alaska ferry 'Columbia' with out any weather, flat clam all the way!, I had the opportunity to read a novel that I am sure would be welcome on board any trawler for winter or on the hook reading.
Whiskey Gulf- authored by Clyde Ford is situated in the Bellingham area where international intrigue is integrated with nautical abandon. The cast includes a 36 foot Willard aft pilot house trawler as the central stage.
Mr. Ford has several books and of those it appears that there are three that are characterized with the same lead person in the form of a retired Coast Guard Commander turned private investigator.
These books are: Red Herring, Whiskey Gulf, and Precious Cargo.
For fast stories of the Georgia Straits, Puget Sound maritime adventure check out Amazon for used copies.
What other authors of maritime stories tickle your pallet of reading?
Regards,
A.M.Johnson-Ketchikan
