What other historians have said:

 “No one has written in such depth on the subject, every school and library in Oregon should have a copy…frankly, it’s  magnificent, it has no parallel..”
  -- Harvey Steele, Oregon Archaeological Society

"I concur completely on: the flora, the natives, the shell chains and clothing and the boats including language that has been so fouled up by the Drake Navigators Guild."
  -- Ralph Heading, Pacific Coast Exploration Society

"I am enjoying your work and you should be both proud and ready for a fusillade of words from California."
  -- Herbert K. Beals, Oregon Historical Society Historian (retired)

"I greatly enjoyed the book, and I thought you advanced your arguments well."
  -- James P. Delgado, PhD, FRGS, RPA, Texas A&M

"Francis Drake in Nehalem Bay is a scholarly piece of research and I would recommend its reading to any serious student of Francis Drake or 16th century maritime expansion."
  -- Susan Jackson, Drake Exploration Society U.K.
