The King’s Coat: Volume 1

The first volume in the beloved Alan Lewrie Naval Adventures series by Dewey Lambdin

At the height of the American Revolution, our hero Alan Lewrie (seventeen-year-old bastard son of Sir Hugo Willoughby) has been shipped off to the Royal Navy to be out of sight and, all had hoped, lost at sea. Instead he took to the sea and ships, to war and leadership. And leaving his boyhood behind, he sets off on a brilliant naval career.

Dewey Lambdin (1945-2021) was a sailor for many years and also worked as a director, writer, and producer in television and advertising. He was a member of the U.S. Naval Institute, the Cousteau Society, and the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, and was a Friend of the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, England. Besides the Alan Lewrie series, he was also the author of What Lies Buried: A Novel of Old Cape Fear. He lived in Nashville, Tennessee.
