Naked Launch: Book One - Paperback

by Neil J. Weston (Author)

In book one of this classic gay pirate historical, originally published in the 1970s, the young Englishman Alan Steele yearns for adventure and a seafaring life. Even if the reality doesn't quite match up to his fantasies, there's still plenty of romance, danger and the tantalizing promise of wealth for a young man willing to take risks.

From Bristol, England to Spanish plantations in the Caribbean, Alan and his new friends Henry, Malcolm and Morgan go from cabin boys to captains packing lifetimes full of love, sex, injustice and rebellion into a few years, emerging tough--yet still tender--men who know what (and who) they want.

Pirates of the Caribbean has nothing on this rollicking novel of young men and the sea!
