Hi, I’m Anthony Dalton. Thanks for clicking on my brochure.

As you will see, my passion is to write books about ships, the oceans, maritime history,

biographies of explorers, and my own far-ranging adventures. Recently I have ventured

away from non-fiction into the wonderful and exciting realm of fiction. My first novel,

RELENTLESS PURSUIT, is showcased on the opposite page. I hope you enjoy reading it.

Thanks again.

Anthony Dalton.

I wrote this ecological thriller loosely based on a series of

adventures I experienced while searching for the magnificent

Royal Bengal tigers in the Sundarbans jungle of south-western

Bangladesh. It is the tale of a zoologist and his campaign to save a

man-eating tiger. This story is a land-based JAWS!

From the era of wooden sailing ships and Europe’s golden age of

exploration, the story of famed British navigator Henry Hudson

tells a classic tale of courage, ambition, and treachery on the high

seas. As the leader of four Arctic voyages in the early 17th century,

Hudson searched in vain for a navigable route through the polar

ice to the riches of Asia. In his obsession to succeed, he made

reckless decisions that pushed his crew to the limit, with

disastrous results.

No matter how many adventurers challenge the historic Northwest

Passage, it is unlikely that any will achieve the fame of Sir John

Franklin, the Lion of the Arctic. Sir John Franklin, his crew and two

ships disappeared in the Arctic in 1845. It would be many years

before the first clues to their fate became known.

A collection of 21 stories from the authors life

of adventure and his travels in remote places.

should be.

The Hudson’s Bay Company steamer Baychimo sailed out of

Vancouver to supply Canada’s Arctic outposts for close to ten

years. In 1931 she became trapped in ice and had to be

abandoned. She drifted throughout the Arctic for the next four

decades.

Manitoba’s Hayes River was one of the major highways of the fur-

trade era. This is the account of my journey on the Hayes River from

Norway House to Oxford House by traditional York boat with a crew

of Cree, and later, from Oxford House to York Factory, on Hudson Bay,

by canoe with five other intrepid travellers – modern-day voyageurs

reliving the past.

ALONE is the story of a near-fatal voyage in a small inflatable

speedboat along the rugged and mostly barren northwest coast

of Alaska. Battling storms, high winds, and monstrous waves, the

author struggled to survive in extreme conditions.

Dewey Soper was the last of the great pioneer naturalists in Canada.

He was also a skilled and meticulous explorer. As a naturalist, he was

a major contributor to the National Museum of Canada, as well as to

the University of Alberta and other museums across the country.

Since the 17th century, hundreds of ships have sailed in the Hudson’s

Bay Company’s fur-trade fleet, servicing far-flung and ice-choked

northern posts, braving the wild rapids of mighty rivers and even

battling past distant Cape Horn. Many of these ships came to grief

on uncharted rocks, and through violent storms.

On cold, windy nights, when rain and snow bring visibility down to

almost zero over the seas off the southwestern coast of Vancouver

Island, one can almost hear the moans and groans and screechings

of dying ships in the Graveyard of the Pacific.

From San Francisco’s fog-bound Golden Gate to the stormy Inside

Passage of British Columbia and Alaska, the magnificent west

coast of North America has taken a deadly toll on shipping since

the early explorers. Here is a collection of tragic tales of ships that

met their end on this treacherous coastline.

Travel back in time aboard gold-rush paddle-steamers on the

Yukon River, rugged sternwheelers on the Saskatchewan and

Red Rivers and luxurious liners on the St. Lawrence to the

decades when steamboats sent the echoes of their shrill

whistles across this vast land.

Watching a polar bear loping across the tundra, stalking a seal or

using its powerful forepaws to drive it through frigid waters from

one large piece of icy, floating real estate to another is like watching

a perfect hunting machine in fluid action.

A collection of 21 stories from my life of adventure, photo-

journalism assignments and other travels in remote places. One

No one really knew Tristan Jones. He lived sixty-six years and

managed to keep the first forty a mystery. He told us what he

wanted us to believe, and he told the tales so well that we either

believed or suspended disbelief. Tristan was another Jack

London, and escaping into his briny books will always remain a

pleasure. Even Tristan’s most sceptical readers will marvel at the

breath of his deceits, as revealed in this uncompromising yet

admiring biography.

Over the years you can imagine how many photographs I have taken and

whilst I have sold my share in the past, I am now releasing, from my

collection, what I feel you might like to purchase and hang on your wall.

See the back page for an example of my work and I’d be delighted if you

were to visit the websites where my creations are posted.
