J. Dennis Robinson is the author of 20 entertaining books about American history, including two exciting New England "history mystery" novels, POINT OF GRAVES and LUCY's VOICE. With illustrator Robert Squier, he presents PORTSMOUTH TIME MACHINE, a graphic history of New Hampshire's only seaport for kids of all ages. A second graphic history about Bunker Hill Monument is due in 2025. Dennis lives and writes in Portsmouth, NH, just across the swirling Piscataqua River from Maine. A popular and sometimes irreverent columnist and lecturer, his most recent illustrated hardcovers are a history of NEW CASTLE Island and MUSIC HALL: How a City Built a Theater and a Theater Shaped a City-- voted best history book of 2020 by the Independent Book Publishers Association. Also new is "1623: Pilgrims, Pipe Dreams, Politics and the Founding of New Hampshire" -- the first-ever true record of the early days of the Granite State. His previous book, MYSTERY ON THE ISLES OF SHOALS, closes the widely misunderstood case of the infamous 1873 ax murders on Smuttynose Island. Yankee Magazine editor Judson Hale called it "a superb piece of work" and Library Journal says "recommended for all true crime collections." His other page-turning history books focus on privateering, outlaw Jesse James, Strawbery Banke Museum, Isles of Shoals archaeology, Wentworth by the Sea hotel, Lord Baltimore, child labor exploitation, and more.
