About the Author

Rowan Drake

Military history and fiction grounded in the records — unit diaries, after-action reports, and the letters soldiers actually sent home. Four series, nineteen books, one standard: get it right, then make it move.

Author portrait

I came to this work the long way — through archives, regimental histories, and a stack of oral-history transcripts that wouldn't let me sleep. Every book starts the same way: with the paper trail a unit left behind, and the gap between what the reports say and what the men remembered.

The fiction lives in that gap. The history keeps it honest.
