His latest Novel, The Midshipman, departs from his usual subject matter and provides a fictional story based on the early lives of some of Britain's young and spoiled children of England's Aristocracy.

It deals with the lives of the young midshipmen employed in the Navy in the early eighteen hundreds and their extraordinary and amazing exploits.
