Hero on Three Continents

HERO ON THREE CONTINENTS is a chronicle of a century with the

protagonist Henry Brown participating in events both cataclysmic and

personal, and interfacing with characters both famous and imaginary. From the

jazz age of the 1920s to the war-torn 1940s, to the international crises of oil

and terrorism in the 70s, this novel makes history intimate, the work of any

epic. The world needs a hero, and Henry Brown is such a man. Maitland-Lewis

demonstrates the importance of uncompromising research as well as the art of

presenting material in a fast-flowing, enjoyable, cant put it down style.
