Bolivar's Right Hand

After serving with Wellingtons army throughout the campaign in the Peninsula and at Waterloo, a young American enlists in Simon Bolívars army of liberation. El Libertador finds that Jack Hardhammer has useful skills and entrusts him with crucial missions that eventually lead to an appointment on Bolívars staff. He crosses the Andes with Bolívar on his campaign to free Colombia from Spanish rule, but Jacks most difficult and personal mission still lies ahead.

He has written eight other novels and several screenplays.
