edit data

Chris is a husband and proud father of three amazing children. He has spent his life living a short drive to the coast and hearing the deep call of the ocean. He is literally a son of a son of a sailor. His grandfather was in the merchant marines during WWII and his great-grandfather was 1st mate on merchant brigantines sailing from the coast of Maine to the Caribbean. The sea is in his veins. Unfortunately, no known pirate lineage. As a student of history and inspired by the lyrics and lifestyle of Jimmy Buffet, he has stories percolating inside him asking to be told. The first, Son of a Son of a Pirate, is a blend of history, fiction, and events lost to history.

5 Questions About Son of a Son of a Pirate

One of my fellow Buffetteque authors suggested posting about how Jimmy inspired my book and answer a few more questions.

1. How has Jimmy Buffett inspired you and your book?
I really started listening to Jimmy in college (back in the fabulous ’80s) and never stopped. Since my first show at Great Woods in Mansfield, MA in 1988 (The Hot Water Tour), I’ve seen him in concert 20 to 30 times. Not only w Read more of this blog post »

Chris’s Quotes

“The Queen Anne's Revenge was not just a ship; it was a vessel for their dreams of freedom, their defiance of a world that sought to grind them into dust. She carried not just a crew of outlaws, but a declaration of independence against the tyranny of the age.”
