Welcome to Larry Andrews' website.

Greetings and welcome to my blog spot.

I've written two novels since my retirement in 2008. The first is a romance, Songs of Sadness, Songs of Love. The second is an action/mysteryThe China-Africa Parallax: A Ryan and Gillian Mystery.

Among the textbooks I have written areLinguistics for L2 Teachers, Mahwah, NJ, Lawrence Earlbaum Associates, 2001; and Language Exploration and Awareness: A Resource Book for Teachers, 3rd edition, Mahwah, NJ, Lawrence Earlbaum Associates, 2006. This textbook was translated into Korean by Pagijong Press, Seoul, South Korea. 2010.

I am presently writing my third Ryan and Gillian novel, The Nathan Culper Brotherhood. You can follow my progress on novel #3 here at this blog site.

More on the title

My next novel title involves two Nathans: Nathan Hale & Nathan Bedford Forest.  


George Washington recognized the importance of covert activities and appointed  the first intelligence gathering group, the forerunners to the OSS and the CIA, the  Culper Ring. Hence: The Nathan Culper Brotherhood.


Nathan Hale is supposed to have said "I regret that I have but one life to give for my country." There's debate about whether that's what he said, but it sounds heroic! 


Forest was a Confederate hero during the Civil War, was one of the founders of the Ku Klux Klan, the KKK's first national Imperial Wizard, and remains a hero today in the eyes of those southerners who don't know they lost the Civil War.
