What forces, either emergent or centrally planned, have subtly changed American life? These questions and more are explored in Wiliam Reynolds' novel SANCTIFY. Set against the shocking murder mystery whose impact on American history was incalculable, SANCTIFY is a rich novel in every sense of the word. James Ortega was fifteen when his Cuban half-brother, Jesus, was a buried casualty of Vietnam. Not until he meets his brother's fiancée, the beautiful and enigmatic Kathy Shine, does he entertain the possibility that Jesus is still alive and the buried casket empty. Frustrated on all fronts, James finally contacts Paul Deland, who holds a high position in Naval Intelligence. So begins the search for the mysterious Jesus, a search that forces us to examine our own disturbing times, in light of tenuous, yet highly evocative, connections with history. SANCTIFY is a fictional tour de force, which reminds the reader--as in all great novels --what it is to be human.

One of the finest nineteenth-century first-person narratives of a sea voyage in existence, and a principle source for Sea of Glory, The Private Journal of William Reynolds brings to life the boisterous world traversed by the six vessels that comprised America's first ocean-going voyage of discovery, the U.S. Exploring Expedition of 18381842. With great eloquence and verve Midshipman William Reynolds describes the harrowing 87,000-mile, four-year circuit of the globe, and relates the story of how the abusive commander of the Ex. Ex., Lieutenant Charles Wilkes, gradually lost the support of his crew. With a seaman's understanding and an artist's appreciation for the wild beauty that surrounds him, the Journal is a tour de force combining meticulous observations with a young man's sense of wonder and, on occasion, terror as he is tossed about by the tremendous seas.
