Timothy Black, a retired history teacher, has been publishing fiction and non-fiction since 1976 in publications around the world from "The London Times" to the "Miami Herald" as well as "Military History Quarterly," "Reader's Digest" and "Palm Beach Life and scores of other publications. He has published several books: "Daydreams & Diaries: Taylor's Time" a well-received cancer memoir which was written with his late daughter Taylor Black, "Tesla's Time Travelers," a YA book dealing with the American Revolution and "Eye," a social-science fiction time travel novel in which a hurricane sends an entire neighborhood back in time. He then added "The Man from Banner Lake" a historical novel set in Florida during World War II and the years thereafter in which a cab driver uncovers a Nazi assassination plot. "The Man from Banner Lake" also covers the controversial Groveland trial as well as the life of Civil Rights martyr Harry Tyson Moore. "Once Again With You" is a literary romance composed of mystery and fantasy. "Caleb and Joshua"is a Civil War novel and "Boyhood, Baseball, Bobby and Bill" is a semi-autobiographical novel of boyhood in the 1950s and is meant for Bobby Boomers and their children. "Tesla's Time Travlers" morphed into a four book series of YA novels with Vol. 2 being "Gettysburg: The Crossroads Town,: Vol. 3 "Jamestowne (sic)" and Volume 4 "Abolition." The series is designed for middle school readers to engender their interest in U.S. History, something which is sorely needed in the country. Recently he published "A Most Unusual Housekeeper," about the life of Lydia Hamilton Smith and "Henry Knox and the Green Mountain Girl," the story of Knox's expedition to move the Fort Ticonderoga cannons to Boston to drive the Redcoats out of Beantown. Under a pen name (Nathan Greene) he wrote "Residents of History" which is a novel about the civilians of Gettysburg during the Civil War.
