Graeme Richard Smith

I was born in Exeter, Devon, England in 1957.

During my childhood I developed a very vivid imagination which is reflected in my writing.

I am a caring, sensitive man with a deep spiritual nature.

My hobbies are American Kenpo Karate - Metal Detecting - History & Archaeology.

Although 'The Awakening of Abraham Brown' is fictional I dedicate this book to all those who gave their lives during WWII and to all the brave men & women who fought against Hitler's tyranny.

During WWII my father saw action in North Africa and was mentioned in despatches for bravery. He was also badly wounded by shrapnel wounds to the head.

Sadly he died before my second birthday in 1958.

My mother was with British Intelligence during the war in which time two of her brothers were killed in action. The family home & business were destroyed during bombing raids upon the beautiful English city of Exeter.
