Oliver Greeves is a Sydney-based writer of historical novels about the French Revolutionary Wars and the Napoleonic War. He is a direct descendent of Francis, Viscountess Nelson and her son, Josiah Nisbet. Family lore and family memorabilia have long played a part in his love for his subject matter. Oliver has a PhD in history from Bristol University in the United Kingdom and studied creative writing at the New School in Greenwich Village New York. He lived in New York for many years, working for Wall Street financial institutions at senior levels and was a founding partner of Pharos Institute, a leadership and executive coaching company. His understanding of institutions and the psychological perspective of those leading them infuses his novels with realism. Oliver has been an enthusiastic sailor for over forty years, owning many sailing craft and having raced yachts and sailboats in seas off the North East Coast of the United States and the South China Sea. Oliver raced his yacht, "Quambi" on Sydney Harbour until recently. His feel for the sea is apparent in his work. Oliver believes in the importance of truth telling in historical fiction as well as the importance of maintaining suspense. His first novel, Nelson's Folly, attacks the myth-making behind one of history's greatest legends, offering a fresh insight into the lives of Horatio Nelson and his devoted wife Fanny - and is a thrilling story of sacrifice, betrayal, and survival.
