Thank you Gordon.


I took the liberty of looking up Gordon's website: www.oldboldpilots.org
Some really good reading, including bios, there. Lots of distinguished

Yes, indeed.

Meanwhile my friend, a while back you asked about current
reading books.
Recently I happened to do a rather interesting light read.
I'd class it as fictional colonial period naval (piracy) and human
relations.
The title was "The only life that mattered."
Check out the preview at (or get a good start at reading it!)
http://books.google.com/books?id=rfY...page&q&f=false

If it sounds interesting to you, let me know either
here or by private email, and I'll get the book back
from who I loaned it to and mail it to you.
