“James Haley—novelist and historian—is a skilled storyteller. His
captivating narrative brings 1830s America vividly to life, from
relatively tranquil New England to naval engagements at sea to
bloody battles in Texas....Captain Putnam for the Republic of Texas
is another inspiring yarn from a master in historical fiction.”
