James Seymour

James Seymour is English born and Australian bred. His first novel, Turner's Rage, was inspired by tales of his great grandfather's exploits in the 1800s. It is the first of an exciting series that traces one emigrant family's adventures and travels across the world, settling in the great southern land of Australia. James, a retired CPA, is now a keen historian and revisited England to research his book. The colorful town of Guildford, set on the banks of the River Wey, Surrey, stole his heart with its bustling streets, friendly coffee houses, green parks and lazy canals. He invites readers to sit back with a cup of coffee and enter a world long past, be drawn into the lives of complex and lovable characters as they struggle through turbulent times with challenges not unlike the ones our civilization faces now.
