Book Description
This sequel begins exactly where the story stops in the first book. It’s just like turning the last page of the first book to the first page of the sequel. Commander Worthy finds that his visit to his brother-in-law revealed a tragedy and threatening of his brother-in-law’s family. You will see how that crisis is resolved by a good commander and his young son, Will. Captain Worthy and his accompanying Captain John’s Warship, was now responsible for moving a strange cargo back to Cuba. There the captain and his escort ships encountered three life-and-death events that occurred on the high seas. You will find that the resolution of these crisis’ will be very interesting and frightening. On return to Cuba, the captain discovers he is about to be confronted with an armada of Spanish ships that are directed to take back to Cuba which that call “Little Spain”. You will follow him through the planning of and taking part in the biggest warship battle of his career. Late in this action-packed book Captain Worthy’s major decision is to carry him to a new adventure. You will get to know several fascinating characters, one who is called Booker T. T. Master, better known to all that knew him as the “Tall Thin Man” (for T. T.). This is an action-packed book with the real possibility of there needing to be another sequel to cover the new adventures of Captain Worthy, his friends, and his family. There are so many new adventures to be told, I cannot mention them all in this sequel. Truthfully, I have yet to get them all on paper.

Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
This adventure is primarily about the life of Captain Joseph Worthy who sails a unique warship called the Avenger. The tale tells of his training on that warship while under the watchful eye of his father Captain Alexander Worthy. It tells of the many skills he has to acquire to become accredited by the English Navy as a Seaman First Class. Joseph’s father Captain Alexander Worthy and his father Captain Eric Worthy were all famous for their victories at sea against Spain and privateers. You will discover how Joseph Worthy will become a Captain of the Avenger. You will read about his meeting an Irish girl called Annabelle and her Irish family. Joseph’s father, Captain Alexander Worthy, patrolled the waters in the Irish Sea and part of the English Channel, where first he, and now we, have commandeered ships while patrolling the Irish Sea and part of the Southern English Channel. Since Captains received a portion of the treasure from each captured ship, his father had acquired a small fortune. Things really began to happen when Joseph Worthy takes his ship on his own time to Ireland. Why he goes there and what happens when he goes there really sets the story in motion. You will see how he eventually becomes a real power not be reckoned with. The final moving of the O’Hara family to Cuba is integral to the story. It is also how he uses his fortune to cause Havana to grow into a busy trading port. His help in getting Havana businesses started caused him to be loved in Cuba as you will read in the end of the story. The pinnacle of the story is when and how he changes Cuba to a country with a President rather than an island ruled by Spain.

Captain Harding's Six-Day War
Author: Elliott Mackle
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781722652036
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 248
Book Description
Assigned to baby-sit a loose-cannon colonel at remote Wheelus Air Base, Libya, handsome, hard-charging Captain Joe Harding spends his off-duty time bedding an enlisted medic and a muscular major, then begins a nurturing friendship with the American ambassador's teenage son. The boy swiftly develops a crush on the man, feelings that Joe, a Southern gent with a strong moral sense, feels he cannot acknowledge or return. Joe's further adventures and misadventures during the course of the novel involve a clerk's murder, a flight-surgeon's drug abuse, a fist-fight in the officers' club bar, a straight roommate whose taste for leather gets him in trouble, the combat death of Joe's former lover, and participation in an all-male orgy witnessed by two very married but somewhat confused fighter jocks. In the run-up to the 1967 war, a mob attacks the embassy in nearby Tripoli and the deranged colonel sets out to attack an Arab warship. To bring the pilots and their airplanes safely home and keep the United States out of the war Joe has two choices: either come out to his closest, straightest buddies or know himself to be a coward, a failure and a traitor to everything that he holds dear. Significant erotic content and salty language.
