This is a sponsored Book Announcement post for Donald R. Bernard.
Donald Ray Bernard is not only an author, but he also manages The Golden Stag Safaris in La Pampa, located in central Argentina. Do you want to be him yet? A published author who gets to live in beautiful South America? It's a tempting lifestyle... To make it even better, he previously owned and managed an adventure getaway in Belize... Now I'm really jealous.
But today we're here to talk about him being an author-and while most of his recent books are works of non-fiction, their subject matter is so interesting that it can keep even the most avid fiction-lover entertained. One of his most popular books, The Life and Times of John Manjiro, tells the tale of the first Japanese man to ever live in the US. It recounts how he is shipwrecked in the US, and how that fateful accident, the kindness of many, and his own passion for learning he was able to bring home a lot of valuable information to help his own country.
While I have not personally read this book and cannot offer you reviews of it, I can say that I have personally read some wonderful reviews. For example, one reader explains how this book helped give him a new perspective on life, and that even as history it was "just as captivating as fiction." There are lots of other great reviews out there as well that seem to concur, so I think I may just have to pick up a copy for myself! Feel free to learn more about Donald Ray Bernard HERE.
Have you ever read a historical novel that was as good as fiction?
