REMEMBERING LIBERIA

 In The Dung Beetles of Liberia we meet the descendants of these American settlers, the "Americo-Liberians," also known as "Congo People" through the eyes of Ken Verrier.  Ken's story is based on the remarkable true account of a 19 year old American who arrives in Monrovia in 1961.  Follow his fast-paced adventures that take place just when the stirrings of revolution were getting started. The extremes of wealth and poverty are stunning and the opportunities to make money everywhere. Predictions of future chaos become obvious.

BLOODROOT, THE HISTORY OF THE JAMESTOWN SETTLEMENT

What is "The Starving Time" in American Colonial History?

The winter of 1609–10, commonly known as the Starving Time, took a heavy toll. Of the 500 colonists living in Jamestown in the autumn, fewer than one-fifth were still alive by March 1610. Sixty were still in Jamestown; another 37, more fortunate, had escaped by ship. As the food stocks ran out, the settlers ate the colony’s animals—horses, dogs, and cats—and then turned to eating rats, mice, and shoe leather. In their desperation, some practiced cannibalism.

NO BIRDS SING HERE is a multi-layered novel about a Post-Modernist America

So Dan, Why did you write this book?

   I wrote No Birds Sing Here because I wanted to study, and satirically explore, the world of two young people motivated toward artistic achievement in a post-modernist world; a world that followed two devastating world wars and upending social and economic change. Also to answer the question of what the human condition would be in this environment where every human emotion, passion and drive existed except love.
