About the Author: Melvin
Douglas Smart was born in Exeter in Southwest England. He now lives in a small mountain village in northern
Spain. When not writing, he enjoys oil painting, hiking, and walking in the
mountains.
Melvin has written two successful novels, Seaweed his first novel inspired by the 10 years he spent
in the merchant navy, and the second novel tilted The Hills of Death based on his years
spent as a coffee farmer in Costa Rica.
Seaweed
Novel Shows Life on the Seas
During the Turbulent 1960s
The protracted Cold War between the Soviet Union and the West was
reaching its height in the late 1960s. Confrontation between the Arab states
and Israel had forced the closure of the Suez Canal to shipping. In the Far
East, a violent political war was raging in Vietnam, and across Northern
Africa, a deadly famine was beginning to take its grip on the population.
In these serious times of worldwide turmoil, the gripping novel Seaweed
takes place. It tells of a fictional sea voyage by the British merchant vessel
M.V. Auroras. This compelling tale of sea-faring life and the events that
occurred on the ship is told from the perspective of Alex Bevan, the ship’s
young radio officer.
After three
years of college, Alex has just completed his first voyage as a qualified ships
radio officer. He returns home on leave but soon gets called to join his next
ship, the M.V. Auroras. Meet the rest of the crew including the captain, a
Welshman in his sixties, who likes his beer and dominates the ship with his
loud penetrating voice.
