      Wet Wonders...a Novel and other Tales of the Sea will take you aboard the unarmed freighter Annabel Lee, caught out on the North Atlantic when World War II was declared. During the same time frame, you can sail across the South Pacific with a young nurse on the ammunition ship Alamo Spirit into the Coral Sea war zone. You can also ship out with Hawaiian seaman Kalakaua, who gets taken prisoner on a Japanese submarine after his merchant vessel is torpedoed. In the World War I era, you can be trapped with a married couple on the steamship Princess Sophia, aground off the Alaskan coast in a blizzard. Thousands of years before that you can accompany Igva, who battles fierce Antarctica storms in his fishing boat, as he tries to save his family from a plague. Read these Wet Wonders tales, told by a former merchant seaman, and you'll meet the real people who sail the real seven seas of the world.
