"Alfred Wellers" is the third book I've read by Jerry Beller, and I'm glad to see he has retained his inimitable style.The story of Alfred Wellers, a young man who trades a life of privilege and comfort for adventure, is a fun and entertaing read. As he becomes disillusioned with the poor morals shown by the sailors, he decides to stay in the new world. This is my favorite part of the book, watching Alfred learn to survive in the wilderness and slowly making contact with a native tribe.The first in the series, the ending left me wanting more. I'm anxious to find out what happens next in Alfred's journey. If you're a fan of historical fiction or "fish out of water" stories, I can't recommend "Alfred Wellers" enough
