Praise for the "Tales of the Sea" series:  
"A well-developed novel that uses copious historical sources to vividly bring its characters and setting to life." ~Kirkus Reviews 
"It is rare when a literary talent bursts upon the scene without warning but that is the case with Cynthia Elder, author of "Tales of the Sea." ~G. Wayne Miller, Journalist, Author, Filmmaker, Co-Host of "Story in the Public Square" 
"Tales of the Sea" brings to life the world of nineteenth-century seafaring with depth and humanity. Building upon extensive analysis of recently discovered manuscripts, this eagerly awaited novel offers an insight into life during a period of change and upheaval in both American and Global history. Cynthia Elder’s engaging writing style ensures that the characters in the book become far more than words on a page as the reader is immersed in their personal and political worlds. The book is a must read for historians and lovers of historical fiction alike." ~ Dr. Charlotte Carrington-Farmer, Professor of History, Roger Williams University, Author of "Roger Williams and His World"
