TIDES OF FURY is a serialized historical fiction novel about life in the Chesapeake Bay region just prior to the War of 1812. From York, PA to Baltimore to Annapolis to Norfolk to Washington City, this area was ground zero for an incredibly turbulent, dangerous, but formative era in American history. What other region in the country can boast about having a “Nest of Pirates” (Baltimore), “America’s most genteel state capital” (Annapolis) and being “as dangerous as the Caribbean”?
