Latest Book

I have posted my latest book, The Chronicles of Friar Brendan, a tale that goes from the death of King Edward I to just after the Peasants Revolt of 1381. Its thesis is that the move of the Papacy from Rome to Avignon combined with the explosion of the University systems created theories of political structure that led to Individualism and leaders be chosen by citizens not subjects and the abolition of Divine Right.

Its characters include Ockham, various English and French Kings, Popes, and Dante, Petrarch, Boccaccio, Chaucer and Gower.

It is still in draft form but seems readable at this stage.
