Derek McCann

I'm a retired Seafarer (Ship Captain). I was born and raised in Dublin, Ireland, and went away to sea when I was 16 years old. I retired after 54 years as a mariner, and currently live in Oceanside California. I'm married with 3 children and 3 grandchildren. I've written one book, which was about my father's experiences in the Great War. My second book, which I'm currently writing is an historical fiction novel, and is set against the background of the Irish War of Independence.
