The Buccaneer King: The Story of Captain Henry Morgan
This is the story of a Welshman who became one of the most ruthless and brutal buccaneers of the golden age of piracy. His name was Captain Sir Henry Morgan and, unlike his contemporaries, he was not hunted down and killed or captured by the authorities. Instead he was considered a hero in England and given a knighthood as well as being made governor of Jamaica. As Graham Thomas reveals in this fresh biography of this complex and intriguing character, Morgan was an exceptional military leader whose prime motivation was to amass as much wealth as he could by sacking and plundering settlements, towns and cities up and down the Spanish Main.??As featured on BBC Radio Wiltshire and in Cardiff Times.

Sudan: Death of a Dream
Description
This book on the Sudan reveals the background of national and international political intrigue. There are few people who have had more experience of Sudanese affairs than Graham Thomas. For over forty years he has made a detailed study of events in that country. He has the added advantage of being trained as an historian, which altogether with his personal political experience gave him a unique insight into developments in the Nile Valley and their significance on the relationships with Egypt and Great Britain.
Sudan: Death of a Dream also reveals the importance of personal relationships and the author was fortunate in being able to identify with most leading Sudanese politicians. he enjoyed the confidence of many of them and was an advisor to many.
Thomas has been utterly frank and truthful concerning events as he saw them and has not been inhibited by ‘diplomatic reticence’ about events or people.

"I founded TheNeverPress in as response to writing my first book and failing to secure a publisher for it, which isn’t surprising as the book is an existential journal that takes place entirely in the precise moment of the main character’s death. Not exactly marketable! But I didn’t want to have written a book and have it sit on a hard drive, or in a box under my bed. I have written loads of screenplays in my time and they are all in my desk drawer. Fortuitously nowadays, anyone can get a book out there in digital and physical form for a relatively small cost, which is wonderful. The big downside, of course, is quality control and so I set up TheNeverPress to try and be as legit as possible in putting the best possible incarnations of my books out there – well edited, well designed… basically I want the indie author to be viewed alongside ‘established’ authors on a level playing field where the book is judged, not the formatting or proofing
