Order of James L. Nelson Books

James L. Nelson is an Amerian author and lifelong sailor. His books are considered maritime fiction and history of which he is the author of over twenty works.
Nelson had an interest in boats and maritime from a young age, but he ended up going to UCLA to study motion picture and television production. It was at college that he began sailing with the school’s sailing club. He tried to make his degree work for a bit, but he was drawn more and more to sailing. He began taking jobs on sailing crews and traveled all over. Which led to a long love of sailing and, eventually, his maritime fiction.
