Hambleton Frederick, MD October 13, 2006 -- PublishAmerica is proud to present Old Salt: Yarns from the Fabric of Life at Sea by David D. Hambleton. “Old Salt” is a term for a sailor who knows the ropes, has sailed the seven seas, and comes home to tell the stories. This book contains tales of US Navy warships and the amazing patriots who worked them. Hambleton was wet behind the ears for flight operations in the Aleutian Islands, a bit more savvy for killer whales in the Strait of Juan de Fuca, and had his thirteenth sea under the keel by the time he sailed into Russia on the Black. The reader will join Hambleton in remembering the life of a sailor touring and protecting the globe, and will admire the power, personality, and poetry of Davy Jones’ wonderful, wet world. David D. Hambleton was born in Minnesota in April 1963. He is a proudly retired US Navy electronics technician. He lives in Woodbridge, VA, with his wife Cassie, with whom he has four children: Grace, Eliana, Jonah and Heidi. PublishAmerica is the home of 20,000 talented authors. PublishAmerica is a traditional publishing company whose primary goal is to encourage and promote the works of new, previously undiscovered writers. Like more mainstream publishers, PublishAmerica pays its authors advances and royalties, makes its books available in both the United States and Europe through all bookstores, and never charges any fees for its services. PublishAmerica offers a distinctly personal, supportive alternative to vanity presses and less accessible publishers. END
