My book is about five years of my life, serving in the Royal Navy between 1965 and 1970 and travelling the world. It is full of travel experiences, often outlandish and funny stories, humour and wry observations of life in the Navy and in general.It is designed for a universal rather than a military audience and is intended to entertain. It describes my experiences during tough training, serving on an aircraft carrier and, finally, small coastal minesweepers, which still managed to traverse the oceans. It tells of using charts originally created by Captain Cook and updated by a reverend and a 13-year-old Midshipman in 1856, visiting "former" headhunters in Borneo and sweeping live mines the Strait of Malacca 20 years after the Second World War. The ship was also blessed with the birth of a baby boy, born at sea 200 miles from Fiji and named after our youngest 17-year-old crew member.I enjoyed travelling to some really remote areas that are still off the tourist track, even today. It was a unique and humbling experience I will never forget.I do hope you enjoy reading my book as much as I have enjoyed writing it.I do hope you enjoy reading my book as much as I have enjoyed writing it.

The colony of Connecticut was instrumental in the formation of the United States. Connecticut was the birthplace of some of the most important patriots of the American Revolution, including Nathan Hale, who was a famous patriot spy. As readers explore the history of Connecticut during its time as a British colony, they also learn about topics relevant to social studies curricula, such as the French and Indian War and the protests against British taxation. Historical images and full-color photographs allow readers to see for themselves what life was like in this colony while gaining practice interpreting primary sources.

In this book, Australian poet, Richard Alexander shows a greater vulnerability than he displayed in his first book, Love is Sufficient.  Any consequence is the result of an earlier action. This, his second book once again exposes his vulnerability borne from years of solitude and perhaps, times of not feeling loved.  Mr Alexander grew up in Sydney, NSW, but spent some of his childhood as well as times during his his teenage years at Mittagong in the NSW Southern Highlands.  Consequences shows Mr Alexander’s ability to create word pictures, adding a whole new dimension for his readers to experience.  Interspersed throughout, there are warm and softly sensuous poems about finding love, living in love, and losing at love.  This time, he introduces a blue kelpie, Mr Hardy who not only dribbles affection but eases the poet’s pain borne of aloneness.  He now lives on the NSW far north coast, where he and his wife have four children and six grandchildren.
