Synopsis

The second installment in the Tom Ellis trilogy. After the dramatic adventures experienced by the young Ellis in Yamacraw Bluff in the burgeoning Savannah, Georgia, war has been declared. Using the pretext of Jenkins’ severed ear, the British are amassing a fleet to attack and inflict a brutal blow against Spain’s American colonies. Meanwhile, in Georgia, General Oglethorpe has been ordered to assemble a force and invade Spanish Florida.

Georgia’s first ranger, Tom Ellis, is now a corporal and is sucked into the fight of his life. Failure will be unthinkable, and heroes will be required on all sides, as South Carolina, Georgia, and Florida learn about the outcome of Florida’s invasion.

Jenkins’ Ear is a fully panoramic historical novel that captures the sights, scenes, and experiences of combatants during the British foray into Florida. It tells the story of the Spanish machinations that led to South Carolina’s Stono Rebellion, chronicles Florida’s invasion, and concludes with the siege of St. Augustine’s Castillo de San Marcos.

About the Author

Dr. Luke Pittaway is the Professor of Entrepreneurship at Ohio University. He has been an academic since 1998 and he earned his PhD from the University of Newcastle-upon-Tyne. The author worked in universities both in the UK and the US, founding entrepreneurship programs and has published over fifty academic papers and book chapters in his discipline.

In 2008 Pittaway emigrated to the United States, and Georgia specifically, to settle in Statesboro, located near Savannah. At this time, he became fascinated with the colonial history of North America and especially the states of Georgia and Ohio. He soon realized that many people were unfamiliar with aspects of American history prior to the War of Independence, and this motivated him to write about the founding histories of colonial North America in an accessible way that would be appealing to readers of historical fiction.
