About the author
John Cameron grew up in the Sand Hills of North Carolina where many generations of his Scottish-American ancestors lived, spending his summers before college working in tobacco fields. At Davidson College he studied history and went on to attend graduate school at UNC Chapel Hill specializing in 18th century France and the Revolution. Having lived in many states and even France, he is now settled more or less permanently in Norfolk, Virginia where he can look out on the Lafayette River as he writes. John is married and has several children and grandchildren scattered about the globe. When not writing he gathers with friends, watches herons on the river, drinks single malt whiskey and plays music on various four stringed instruments. He considers himself to be a child of the Enlightenment, which remains a statement of the finest hopes and goals for humanity.
