Dear Mr. Taylor. 

We are eagerly anticipating the release of the Ships and Ship Wrecks of the Late Tudor Dynasty. I hope you keep us informed of the release date. Jon, Boston.


I have studied shipwrecks for almost 40 years.  Your so to be released publication has many people buzzing with anticipation. John, London. 


James, please let everyone know why the release of the Ships and Shipwrecks of the Late Tudor Dynasty will be released. Sharon, Kent, England. 


Why do you not include that information on these sites and blog?

Dr. Rachel Dockingston.

 

Dr. Dockingston,

Thank you for your kind words. I tried to include information I discovered in my biographies several times on Wikipedia. I had a long discussion with an individual who insisted my dates about a subject were incorrect. I sent him a picture of the grave stone. He said those were incorrect and would never reveal his sources. Every time I would update, he would delete it. I discussed the issue with Wikipedia. The individual was told to stop. But, he continued. 


I do not have the time to deal with people like that. He had never written a book, more less conducted research. Many people believe what they want to, regardless of being correct or not. There is a plethora of misinformation on the internet and people are growing to accept that. 

That is a darn shame. I write well researched material for future generations to use. Not regurgitated inaccurate material that too many people believe is correct because it is on the internet. 


Blogging is the same. People read my material and send me many letters praising my work. That is reward enough.

“Taylor succeeds in furnishing insights into the remarkable mind of this young, 16th-century Protestant noblewoman” & “serious students of English history will relish the new material offered here.” Publishers Weekly, Jan 2005. The Documents of Lady Jane Grey, Nine Days Queen of England, 1553.


“Mr. Taylor is an independent scholar who has not compromised traditional research values to provide his readers with thorough factual historical accounts instead of embellishing a few well-known facts as some modern authors do”. Detroit Free Press. 2008.


“James is a truly talented and gifted musician, author and poet. He is a respected independent scholar and his literary works have been openly accepted in academia and classrooms. It is refreshing to find an author who maintains traditional research values in this era of ‘armchair researchers.” Dr. Charlene Berry. Madonna University Library. 


"James  Taylor is a Renaissance man, delving into music, history, and writing  in his decades long career. As a military veteran, composer, amateur  astronomer, and historian, he brings a depth and breadth to his work  that is priceless. His penchant for finding a good story in history and  talent in finding true sources combine to create intelligent, engaging  biographies that reveal his favorite aphorism: truth really is stranger  than fiction." The Letterworks: Author Spotlight-2018
